Estrogen Receptors in Human Nontarget Tissues: Biological and Clinical Implications*

CIOCCA, DANIEL R., VARGAS ROIG, LAURA M.·1995·Endocrine Reviews

Abstract

THE idea to write this review began a number of years ago when one of us (D.R.C.) was working in Dr. William L. McGuire's laboratory in San Antonio, Texas,1 where we were involved in the study of estrogen receptor(s) (ER) and estrogen-regulated proteins in breast cancer. At that time ER were beginning to be identified in tissues not considered classic targets for estrogens. The idea of reviewing the literature on the presence of ER in nontarget tissues did not prosper because there were methodological problems that could give false positives for ER, such as those reported in melanomas (1). However, at that time ER could be detected by ligand binding assays. More than 10 yr have passed and the study of ER has been improved with the advent and widespread use of monoclonal antibodies against the receptor protein. The presence of ER has been described in numerous normal and pathological tissues using ligandbinding and immunochemical assays. In addition, ER have also been studied at the messenger RNA (mRNA) and DNA level. We can now explore whether the receptor is functional and whether it controls gene and cell functions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
