In monocytes at the secretory (oestrogen-progesterone dominant) phase of the menstrual cycle, expression of c-fms and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) receptor and activity of tyrosine kinase (TK) were increased by oestradiol wi…
― Recently, much evidence has indicated that sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG) play a role in the intracellular action of sex steroids in target cells. In the present work, expression of SHBG mRNA…
In support of a possible clinical use of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (Gn-RH) analogs in the treatment of the endometrial carcinoma, this study was undertaken to establish the presence and characteristics of Gn-RH receptor on endometrial …
The levels of interleukin 1 beta (IL-1 beta) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in peritoneal fluid (PF-IL-1 beta and PF-TNF) and production of IL-1 beta and TNF by peritoneal macrophages were determined in patients with benign gynecologic dis…
ABSTRACT: The effects of estradiol (E 2 ), progesterone (P), and danazol on the production of interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) by OK‐432 (a streptococcal preparation)‐stimulated monocytes were examined. E 2 and P at ph…
To understand the mechanism of biological action of gestrinone (R2323), which has a therapeutic effect against endometriosis, the binding of gestrinone to numerous classes of intracellular steroid binding proteins was studied in the human u…
Abstract. To support the estrogen hypothesis in the patho‐genesis of leiomyoma, total cellular estrogen receptor (ER) levels (the sum of levels in cytosol and nuclear KCl‐extract‐able and nuclear non‐KCl‐extractable fractions) were assayed …
Abstract The serum prolactin (PRL) levels of 34 cases of endometriosis, 26 cases of adeno‐m‐osis, 30 cases of functional d‐smenorrhea, and 9 patients with m‐oma uteri were measured b‐ radioimmunoassa‐. The incidence of h‐perprolactinemia (>…
Abstract Nine patients with pelvic endometriosis were treated with gestrinone in a dose of 2.5 mg twice weekl‐ for 6 to 7 months. All patients became anovulator‐ with sporadic episodes of painless uterine bleeding lasting various periods of…
This study was designed to clarify the effects of danazol on levels of serum luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), prolactin, progesterone (P), and 17 beta-estradiol and endometrial steroid receptors (for estrogen [E…
Steroid receptors in endometriosis and adenomyosis were investigated to clarify their clinical significance. The receptor levels were determined by Scatchard plot analysis (4 degrees C, by dextran-coated charcoal). In the cytosols of both t…
