Estrogen Inducible Proteinase Inhibitor 9 Protects Target Cells From Immune Surveillance and Apoptosis
… cells. In MCF-7 cells, induction of PI-9 by 17beta-estradiol (E2) inhibited TRAIL-mediated cytotoxicity. This is the first demonstration that regulation of PI-9 expression from its endogenous promoter results in production of sufficient PI-9 to inhibit cytotoxocity by members of the TNF …

DNA Repair, Redox Regulation and Modulation of Estrogen Receptor Alpha Mediated Transcription
… of estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) with 17beta-estradiol (E2) facilitates binding of the receptor to estrogen response elements (EREs) in target genes, which in turn leads to recruitment of coregulatory proteins. To better understand how estrogen-responsive genes are regulated, our …

Age, growth, and reproductive biology, of the winter skate, Leucoraja ocellata, in the western Gulf of Maine
… of the sex steroids testosterone (T), 17beta-estradiol (E2), and progesterone (P4) were determined by radio immunoassay and compared to morphological and histological changes occurring in the reproductive tract over a complete reproductive cycle for mature individuals. Overall, when the …

Development and Comparison of 17beta-Estradiol Sorption Isotherms for Three Agriculturally Productive Soils From Different Physiographic Regions in Virginia
Natural steroid estrogens such as 17beta-estradiol in low nanogram per liter concentrations can adversely affect the reproductive health of aquatic organisms. The overall goal of this research was to quantify the sorption of 17beta-estradiol to three soils considered to be agriculturally productive …

Development and Application of a Fluorescence Anisotropy Microplate Assay for Analyzing the Interaction of Steroid Hormone Receptors With DNA and Coactivators
… complex occurred only in the presence of 17beta-estradiol (E2), as previously reported. Differential inhibition of ERE-ER interaction with SRC1a was observed with different NR-Box peptide competitors. Furthermore, the profile of peptide-mediated inhibition differed between ERE-ERalpha and …

Effects of Long-Term Exposure of Normal C57BL/6J Inbred Mice to 17β-Estradiol on Gene Expression in Lymphocytes: mRNA Analysis of Lymphokines and bcl-2/fas
… the effect of long-term exposure to 17β-estradiol on lymphokine and bcl-2/fas (proto-oncogenes) mRNA expression. We evaluated the effects of estrogen on the expression of genes for lymphokines, which are essential for the immune response. It is hypothesized that estrogen may regulate the …
