Potential mechanisms of estrogen-driven carcinogenesis include ... references supporting the corresponding pathway of estrogenic action.

It is well known that, upon stimulation by estrogen, ER-alpha enters the cell nucleus where it mediates the transcription of ...

A new study led by scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine has revealed that the hormone estrogen plays a key role in binge ...

Although the researchers suspected estrogen would have an effect on drinking, they were surprised by its mechanism of action. This steroid hormone typically regulates behaviors by binding to ...

Steroid hormones are usually assumed to be long ... This change in focus shifted attention away from more rapid mechanisms of steroid action for several decades. Rapid mechanisms can occur within ...

The action of the peptide hormone adrenocorticotropin (ACTH ... Perhaps surprisingly for such a fundamental physiological mechanism, there is little or no redundancy in the components of the ...

Potential mechanisms of estrogen-driven carcinogenesis include prostatic estrogen receptor-mediated events, epigenetic changes, genotoxicity, hyperprolactinemia and chronic inflammation.
