1. Molecular mechanisms of estrogen and antiestrogen action
Abstract : Estrogen is a key regulatory hormone that affects numerous physiological processes. The estrogen receptors (ER), ER alpha and ER beta, play a central role in mediating the effects of both estrogens and antiestrogens. Estrogen signaling has proven to be multifaceted and the precise mechanism of action remains in many cases elusive. READ MORE

2. Regulation of transcription factors by XAP-2 : a member of the Hsp90 chaperone complex
Abstract : The AhR belongs to the bHLH/PAS family of transcription factors, which mediates biological effects of environmental pollutants such as 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-rho-dioxin (TCDD). In the absence of ligand the AhR is located in the cytoplasmatic compartment of the cell associated with the molecular chaperone Hsp90, p23 and a member of the immunophilin family of proteins, XAP-2.

3. Transcription factors involved in negative and positive gene regulation by glucocorticoids
Abstract : Steroid hormones, including glucocorticoids (GCs), control a wide variety of developmental and physiological responses in higher eukaryotic organisms. They pass through the plasma membrane and bind to specific receptor proteins inside the cell. READ MORE
