Different expression of estrogen receptors alpha and beta in human myometrium and leiomyoma during the proliferative phase of the menstrual cycle and after GnRHa treatment
Gynecological endocrinology : the official journal of the International Society of Gynecological Endocrinology ·doi:10.1080/713602983

Uterine leiomyomas (uterine fibroids) are sex-steroid dependent benign tumors. Limited knowledge is available regarding the role of estrogen and their receptors in the regulation of fibroids in premenopausal women, and in their shrinkage af…

Cervical ripening after treatment with prostaglandin E2 or antiprogestin (RU486). Possible mechanisms in relation to gonadal steroids
European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology ·doi:10.1016/s0301-2115(98)00329-7

OBJECTIVE: To compare the mechanisms for cervical ripening after treatment with prostaglandin E2 or antiprogestin (RU486) to spontaneous cervical ripening, with focus on gonadal steroid receptors. STUDY DESIGN: Cervical biopsies were obtai…

Potential roles for gonadal steroids and insulin-like growth factor I during final cervical ripening
Obstetrics & Gynecology ·doi:10.1016/s0029-7844(97)00245-7

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether gonadal steroids and insulin-like growth factor I influence the final cervical remodeling during parturition. METHODS: Cervical biopsies were obtained transvaginally before labor (n = 10) and after spontaneo…

Estrogen regulation of the estrogen receptor and insulinlike growth factor-I in the rat uterus: a potential coupling between effects of estrogen and IGF-I
Steroids ·doi:10.1016/0039-128x(94)90011-6

The interrelationship between estrogen and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) in the regulation of uterine growth was studied in the rat. The levels of the estrogen receptor (ER), ER mRNA, and IGF-I mRNA in rat uterus and liver were monit…
