The estrogen receptor is the master transcriptional regulator of breast cancer phenotype and the archetype of a molecular therapeutic target. We mapped all estrogen receptor and RNA polymerase II ...

Methods: ERα ChIP-seq data from proliferating MCF-7 breast cancer cells was used from a publically available dataset [Ross-Innes, 2010]. The transcription start sites of the 58 genes in the gene set ...

When estrogen binds to receptor sites in cancer cells, it makes them grow. Tamoxifen works by sitting on the estrogen receptors in breast tissue. This prevents estrogen from binding to the cancer ...

The selective estrogen-receptor modulators, or SERMs, chemically diverse nonsteroid compounds, have tertiary structures that permit binding to the estrogen receptor. These compounds have either sel ...

e15647Background: Antiestrogens are a mainstay of treatment for estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer in both the adjuvant and the advanced/metastatic settings. ... (RAD1901), a novel ...

Because estrogen receptor binders can prevent cancer-causing compounds from binding to estrogen, they may be able to thwart the growth of cancerous tumors. Koffas says that they were able to achieve ...

Discover how high-speed AFM reveals estrogen receptor binding to DNA, enhancing understanding of gene regulation. ... Lim K, et al. Zooming into gene activation: estrogen receptor α dimerization and ...

Estrogen has been shown to promote neuronal survival in such models of Parkinson’s, thought to be due to estrogen's ability to interfere with dopamine binding for reuptake at presynaptic sites ...

Tamoxifen, on the other hand, competes for estrogen receptor binding, so "a modest elevation of the very low serum estrogen levels" with hormone therapy "is not assumed to counteract the receptor ...
