Abstract:

The recent cloning by Thornton (2001) of estrogen, progesterone and corticoid receptors from lamprey provides important insights into the early evolution of adrenal and sex steroid receptors and an opportunity to elucidate the ancient steroids that regulated gene transcription. Inclusion of lamprey sequences in a steroid receptor phylogeny indicates that the estrogen receptor is the most ancient of these receptors, followed by the progesterone receptor and the corticoid receptor. Thornton proposed that estradiol was the earliest of the steroids to activate a steroid receptor. An alternative hy

Abstract:

The nuclear receptor family responds to a diverse group of ligands, including steroids, retinoids, thyroid hormone, prostaglandins and fatty acids. Previous sequence analyses of adrenal and sex steroid receptors indicate that they form a clade separate from other nuclear receptors. However, the relationships of adrenal and sex steroid receptors to each other and to their ancestors are not fully understood. We have used new information from androgen, estrogen, mineralocorticoid and progesterone receptors in fish to better resolve the phylogeny of adrenal and sex steroid receptors. Sequence dive

Abstract:

Steroid hormones in plants and in animals are very important for physiological and developmental regulation. In animals steroid hormones are recognized by nuclear receptors, which transcriptionally regulate specific target genes following binding of the ligand. In addition, numerous rapid effects generated by steroids appear to be mediated by a mechanism not depending on the activation of nuclear receptors. Although the existence of separate membrane receptors was postulated many years ago and hundreds of reports supporting this hypothesis have been published, no animal membrane steroid recept

Abstract:

Rapid effects of steroid hormones result from the actions of specific receptors localized most often to the plasma membrane. Fast-acting membrane-initiated steroid signaling (MISS) 1leads to the modification of existing proteins and cell behaviors. Rapid steroid-triggered signaling through calcium, amine release, and kinase activation also impacts the regulation of gene expression by steroids, sometimes requiring integration with nuclear steroid receptor function. In this and other ways, the integration of all steroid actions in the cell coordinates outcomes such as cell fate, proliferation, d

Abstract Although glucocorticosteroids are a very effective treatment for asthma and other chronic inflammatory diseases, a small proportion of patients are resistant to their therapeutic effects. The molecular mechanism for this steroid resistance is unclear. Steroid resistance cannot be explained by pharmacokinetic mechanisms, by a defect in the binding of steroids to glucocorticoid receptors, nor by defective nuclear translocation of this receptor, thereby suggesting that the molecular abnormality lies distal to nuclear translocation.

In the case of steroid receptors, binding of an antagonist ligand was initially reported to induce association of deacetylases to prevent activation of target genes.

SHBG also functions as part of a novel steroid-signaling system that is independent of the classical intracellular steroid receptors.

Abstract Many transcription-independent (nongenomic) steroid effects are regulated by G proteins.

Oocyte maturation is proposed to occur through a release of inhibition mechanism whereby constitutive signaling by Gβγ and other G proteins maintains oocytes in meiotic arrest. Steroids (androgens in vivo, and androgens and progesterone in vitro) overcome this inhibition to promote meiotic resumption. To test this model, we used G protei

Abstract:

Two corticosteroid receptors have been cloned; they are the glucocorticoid receptor and the mineralocorticoid receptor. These receptors are members of the steroid/thyroid/retinoid receptor family of nuclear transactivating factors, which are characterized by two highly conserved zinc fingers in the central DNA binding domain, a COOH-terminal domain that encompasses the ligand binding site, and a variable NH2-terminal domain. In addition to these cloned receptors, other corticosteroid receptors have recently been identified in intestine. Steroid binding studies have identified two novel putativ

Abstract:

Cell cycle progression is tightly controlled by several kinase families including Cyclin-Dependent Kinases, Polo-Like Kinases, and Aurora Kinases. A large amount of data show that steroid hormone receptors and various components of the cell cycle, including cell cycle regulated kinases, interact, and this often results in altered transcriptional activity of the receptor. Furthermore, steroid hormones, through their receptors, can also regulate the transcriptional expression of genes that are required for cell cycle regulation. However, emerging data suggest that steroid hormone receptors may h

Abstract:

Abstract Steroid receptors regulate gene expression for many important physiologic functions and pathologic processes. Receptors for estrogen, progesterone, and androgen have been extensively studied in breast cancer, and their expression provides prognostic information as well as targets for therapy. Noninvasive imaging utilizing positron emission tomography and radiolabeled ligands targeting these receptors can provide valuable insight into predicting treatment efficacy, staging whole-body disease burden, and identifying heterogeneity in receptor expression across different metastatic sites.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Steroid hormone receptors act to regulate specific gene transcription primarily as steroid-specific dimers bound to palindromic DNA response elements. DNA-dependent dimerization contacts mediated between the receptor DNA binding domains stabilize DNA binding. Additionally, some steroid receptors dimerize prior to their arrival on DNA through interactions mediated through the receptor ligand binding domain. In this report, we describe the steroid-induced homomeric interaction of the rat glucocorticoid receptor (GR) in solution in vivo. Our results demonstrate that GR interacts in solut

ABSTRACT We have previously demonstrated that overexpression of Cdc25B in transgenic mice resulted in mammary gland hyperplasia and increased steroid hormone responsiveness. To address how Cdc25B enhances the hormone responsiveness in mammary glands, we showed that Cdc25B stimulates steroid receptor-dependent transcription in transient transfection assays and in a cell-free assay with chromatin templates. Surprisingly, the effect of Cdc25B on steroid receptors is independent of its protein phosphatase activity in vitro. The direct interactions of Cdc25B with steroid receptors, on the other han

Abstract:

The steroid receptor content in breast carcinoma correlates with the responsiveness of malignant cells to endocrine manipulation. Although the steroid receptor status of the primary tumor is mostly used to select systemic therapy, it was suggested that steroid receptor content should be evaluated in metastatic lesions whenever possible. In this study the estrogen and progesterone receptor content was determined biochemically in 38 pleural effusions from advanced breast cancer patients. In 17/38 patients the steroid receptor status was assessed twice during the course of the disease - at diagno

Abstract:

The CDC37 gene is essential for the activity of p60v-src when expressed in yeast cells. Since the activation pathway for p60v-src and steroid hormone receptors is similar, the present study analyzed the hormone-dependent transactivation by androgen receptors and glucocorticoid receptors in yeast cells expressing a mutant version of the CDC37gene. In this mutant, hormone-dependent transactivation by androgen receptors was defective at both permissive and restrictive temperatures, although transactivation by glucocorticoid receptors was mildly defective only at the restrictive temperature.

Abstract:

The field of steroid hormone action is well established, although it is barely more than four decades old. Pivotal experiments in the late 1950s and 1960s showed that hormone-binding components exist within nuclei of target tissues and that steroid hormones act by regulating gene expression, rather than directly influencing enzymatic processes. The understanding that steroid hormone receptors interact with the general transcription machinery and alter chromatin structure came in the 1970s and 1980s, and details of this mechanism continue to be elucidated. In addition, the discovery of rapid ce

Abstract:

Sirtuins, which are class III NAD-dependent histone deacetylases that regulate a number of physiological processes, play important roles in the regulation of metabolism, aging, oncogenesis, and cancer progression. Recently, a role for the sirtuins in the regulation of steroid hormone receptor signaling is emerging. In this mini-review, we will summarize current research into the regulation of estrogen, androgen, progesterone, mineralocorticoid, and glucocorticoid signaling by sirtuins in cancer. Sirtuins can regulate steroid hormone signaling through a variety of molecular mechanisms, includin
