Journal ArticleDOI

Female steroid hormones and target cell nuclei.

TL;DR: The data discussed herein demonstrate the great variation in target-tissue response that can occur after administration of steroid hormones, and direct quantitative evidence that sex steroids cause a net increase in the intracellular amounts of specific mRNA molecules in target tissues is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular interactions of steroid hormone receptor with its enhancer element: Evidence for receptor dimer formation

TL;DR: A steroid hormone responsive element (GRE/PRE), sufficient to confer glucocorticoid and progesterone inducibility when linked to a reporter gene, was used in band-shift assays to examine its molecular interactions with steroid hormone receptors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Progesterone-regulated genes in the ovulation process: ADAMTS-1 and cathepsin L proteases

TL;DR: The identification of two regulated proteases in the ovary, together with their abnormal expression in anovulatory PR knockout mice, suggests that each plays a critical role in follicular rupture and represents a major advance in the understanding of the proteolytic events that control ovulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular cloning of complementary DNA encoding the avian receptor for vitamin D.

TL;DR: This cDNA represents perhaps the rarest mRNA cloned to date in eukaryotes, as well as the first receptor sequence described for an authentic vitamin.
Journal ArticleDOI

The steroid receptor superfamily: more excitement predicted for the future.

TL;DR: This superfamily of regulatory molecules was shown to include also the receptors for thyroid hormone (T3) vitamin D3 and retinoic acid and perhaps more surprising was the inclusion of oncogenes such as v-erb A in this family.
