Journal ArticleDOI
Differential effects of estradiol and estradiol-BSA conjugates.
TL;DR: It is reported that E2-BSA conjugate preparations, but not unconjugated E2, activate extracellular signal-regulated protein kinases (ERK1 and ERK2) in the SK-N-SH neuroblastoma cell line, raising concerns regarding the use of these reagents as E2 mimics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of estrogen receptor-beta protein in rodent ovary.
Susan L. Fitzpatrick,Judith M. Funkhouser,Deborah M. Sindoni,Panayiotis E. Stevis,Darlene C. Deecher,Ashok R. Bapat,Istvan Merchenthaler,Donald E. Frail +7 more
TL;DR: This work has identified and characterized the estrogen receptor-β (ER-β) subtype in rodent granulosa cells and identified the mechanisms mediating the actions of estrogen in granULosa cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of promiscuous G protein coupling of the follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) receptor: a novel mechanism for transducing pleiotropic actions of FSH isoforms.
Brian J. Arey,Panayiotis E. Stevis,Darlene C. Deecher,Emily S. Shen,Donald E. Frail,Andres Negro-Vilar,Francisco J. López +6 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that alternative glycosylation of FSH leads to a functionally altered form of the hormone, whereby the gonad may respond in diverse ways to complex hormonal signals such as those presented by circulating FSH isoforms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of Functional Estrogen Receptors and Galanin Messenger Ribonucleic Acid in Immortalized Luteinizing Hormone-Releasing Hormone Neurons: Estrogenic Control of Galanin Gene Expression
Emily S. Shen,Edwin H. Meade,Maria C. Perez,Darlene C. Deecher,Andres Negro-Vilar,Francisco J. López +5 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated by RT-PCR and Southern blotting that immortalized mouse LHRH neurons (GT1–7 cells) express ER messenger RNA (mRNA), and the ability of endogenous GT1-7 cell ER to regulate transcription was determined in transient transfection studies using a construct tha...
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification and characterization of a selective, nonpeptide follicle-stimulating hormone receptor antagonist
Brian J. Arey,Darlene C. Deecher,Emily S. Shen,Panayiotis E. Stevis,Edwin H. Meade,Jay Wrobel,Donald E. Frail,Francisco J. López +7 more
TL;DR: A novel synthetic molecule capable of inhibiting the action of FSH is identified and characterized, providing proof of concept that selective, small molecule antagonists can be designed for glycoprotein hormone receptors.
