BACKGROUND
OncotypeDX(®) (ODX) is a well-validated assay for breast cancer treatment planning. We explored whether the conventional pathological factors could pick up high risk patients without the help of the ODX.
METHODS
The ODX was performed on 139 hormone receptor-positive invasive breast
BACKGROUND
Coffee and tea consumption has been inconsistently associated with the risk of breast cancer. We examined the associations of caffeinated coffee and black tea consumption with the incidence of breast cancer, overall and by estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) status of
Female gender, contraceptives, and menopausal hormone replacement treatments containing progesterone analogues associate with higher risk of meningiomas yet with lower risk of gliomas. Progesterone receptor (PR) expression and mifepristone treatment was highly discussed for meningiomas. However,
BACKGROUND
Alcohol intake has been reported to be positively associated with an increased risk of postmenopausal breast cancer; however, the association with the estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) status of the breast tumors remains unclear.
METHODS
Self-reported data on alcohol
The influence of estrogen, progesterone and testosterone on the activities of alkaline and acid phosphatases, adenosine triphosphatase and succinate dehydrogenase were determined by cytochemical methods in sarcoma 180 and Ehrlich's carcinoma cells transplanted in male and female Swiss mice. The
The influence of estrogen, progesterone and testosterone on the activities of alkaline and acid phosphatases, adenosine triphosphatase and succinate dehydrogenase were determined by cytochemical methods in sarcoma 180 and Ehrlich's carcinoma cells transplanted in male and female Swiss mice. The
The effects of estradiol (E2), dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and dehydro-3-epiandrosterone (DHEA) on proliferation and progesterone receptor induction were studied in a breast cancer cell line (T47D) expressing estrogen, androgen, and progesterone receptors. A significant enhancement of growth and
The effect of androgen on the levels of the cytosol progesterone receptor was examined in the transplantable rat mammary tumor MT-W9B and in the normal uteri of inbred WF rats. Progesterone receptor levels were barely detectable in tumors grown in male WF rats but were increased after castration or
We utilized a xenograft model of human ovarian cancer to study the ability of estrogen to induce progesterone receptor. Tumor cytosol from 17 beta-estradiol treated oophorectomized animals, but not oophorectomized controls, contained a [3H]ORG 2058 binding moiety of sedimentation coefficient 6-9S.
We have developed a model of hormonal carcinogenesis in BALB/c female mice, in which MPA induced ductal mammary adenocarcinomas, expressing high levels of estrogen and progesterone receptors (ER and PR). A series of tumor lines, retaining both PR and ER expression, were obtained from selected
This study demonstrates for the first time, that medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) inhibits the proliferation of the estrogen and progesterone receptor negative mammary cancer cell line MFM-223 via the androgen receptor. MPA is a progestin, which is used in the hormonal treatment of disseminated
BACKGROUND
This report presents original, combined mode of treatment of preinvasive endometrial cancer (IA/G1) in young women with polycystic ovarian syndrome.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of the study was the assessment of treatment with natural female sexual hormones in combination with antidiabetic,
The coexistence of type 2 diabetes with breast cancer may result in poorer cancer-related survival due to a number of mediating factors including an alteration of tumor tissue hormonal sensitivity. Previous studies have shown that receptor status of breast tumors in diabetics may be changed;
It is well known that estrogen (E2) induces progesterone receptor (PR) in the uterus and the mammary gland. In MtT/F84, a pituitary tumor, which was established in our laboratory and has been maintained with in vivo passages, we investigated the PR regulation by E2 in relation to the host's
Monoclonal antibodies (mAB) against progesterone receptor (PR) and the peroxidase-antiperoxidase (PAP) method to visualize PR in paraffin sections from 68 human breast cancers were used. Ten mAB, which recognize human PR on frozen sections, were tested. Six could detect PR in paraffin sections, with
