Regulation of aromatase expression in estrogen-responsive breast and uterine disease: from bench to treatment
Pharmacological reviews ·doi:10.1124/pr.57.3.6

A single gene encodes the key enzyme for estrogen biosynthesis termed aromatase, inhibition of which effectively eliminates estrogen production. Aromatase inhibitors successfully treat breast cancer and endometriosis, whereas their roles in…
