Associations between polymorphisms in glucuronidation and sulfation enzymes and sex steroid concentrations in premenopausal women in the United States
The Journal of steroid biochemistry and molecular biology ·doi:10.1016/j.jsbmb.2010.12.014

Glucuronidation, catalyzed by UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGT) and sulfation, catalyzed by sulfotransferases (SULT), are pathways through which sex steroids are metabolized to less active compounds. These enzymes are highly polymorphic an…

Associations between endogenous sex hormone levels and mammographic and bone densities in premenopausal women
Cancer causes & control : CCC ·doi:10.1007/s10552-009-9321-3

PURPOSE: Mammographic breast and bone mineral densities (BMD) have been associated with luteal phase hormone concentrations in premenopausal women. We assessed the associations of breast and bone densities with follicular phase hormones and…

Lignan and isoflavone excretion in relation to uterine fibroids: a case-control study of young to middle-aged women in the United States
The American journal of clinical nutrition ·doi:10.1093/ajcn/84.3.587

BACKGROUND: Uterine fibroids are hormonally responsive; estradiol and progesterone stimulate their growth, and gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonists shrink them. Phytoestrogens, including isoflavones and lignans, can act as weak estrogen…
