2. A comparative study of estrogen receptors a and b in the female reproductive tract
Abstract : Estrogens have a pronounced influence on the function of the female reproductive system. The regulation of biological processes by estrogens is mediated via specific intracellular receptors (ERs), ERalpha and ERbeta, which function as regulators of transcriptional activity. READ MORE

4. Genetic and non-genetic influences on some metabolic cardiovascular risk factors : quantitative genetic analyses
Abstract : Structural-equation modeling analyses were applied to data from 302 Swedish twin pairs in order to assess the relative importance of genetic and nongenetic influences on several metabolic cardiovascular risk factors. These middle-aged and elderly twins include monozygotic and dizygotic twins reared apart and together, who came from a population-based national twin register. READ MORE

5. Human mouse mammary tumor virus like elements and their relations to breast cancer
Abstract : The human genome contains a variety of more or less ancient endogenous retroviral sequences. They are commonly referred to as HERVs (human endogenous retroviruses). Of all the known HERV groups, the HERV-K supergroup apparently comes closest to encoding functional retroviral proteins, although infectious particles have not been demonstrated. READ MORE
