Changes in Uterine Estrogen Receptor Concentrations in Persistent Estrous and Persistent Diestrous Rats.

Abstract

Changes in uterine weight and the estrogen receptor concentrations were

Characterization of Estrogen Receptor in Estrogen-Dependent Transplantable Rat Pituitary Tumor MtT/F84.

“…al., 1981) (Puri et al, 1982;Renoir et al, 1982;Grandics et al, 1984;Atrache et al, 1985;Redeuilh et al, 1987). Kd and NBSmax values observed in both cytosolic and nuclear receptor fraction in this study are not much different from those of the ERs already reported in the rodent uterus (Aihara et al, 1980(Aihara et al, , 1988Evans et al, 1980;Chuknyiska et al, 1984Chuknyiska et al, , 1985.…”

Estradiol-17β: Tracing its metabolic significance in female fatbody of fifth instar larvae of silkworm, Bombyx mori L (race: Nistari)

“…A K d value of 13.74 ± 6.735 nM for E 2 -binding sites obtained in the present study seems to be high in comparison with the dissociation constant of high affinity estrogen receptor reported in vertebrates, such as in mouse uterus (0.23 nM, Aihara et al, 1980;1.4 nM, Horigome et al, 1987), rat uterus (0.092-0.104 nM, Aihara et al, 1988). However, higher dissociation constant has also been reported in Atlantic salmon liver (13 K d , Lazier et al, 1985) along with a much lower affinity-binding site.…”

Effects of Huang Bai (Phellodendri Cortex) on bone growth and pubertal development in adolescent female rats

“…In contrast, wet weight and ovary and uterus indices were significantly lower in the estradiol and triptorelin groups than in the control group. In a previous study, ovarian and uterine weights of persistent oestrus- or dioestrus-cycle rats were lower than those of rats with normal oestrus cycles [ 31 ]. Long-term estradiol or triptorelin administration may change the oestrus cycle of rats from normal to a persistent cycle of oestrus and dioestrus.…”
