Journal ArticleDOI
Phytoestrogens and Their Human Metabolites Show Distinct Agonistic and Antagonistic Properties on Estrogen Receptor α (ERα)and ERβ in Human Cells
TL;DR: All phytoestrogens tested showed reduced potencies to activate ERalpha and ERbeta compared to diethylstilbestrol on the estrogen-responsive C3 promoter compared to a consensus estrogen response element indicating a degree of promoter dependency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estrogen receptors and endocrine diseases: lessons from estrogen receptor knockout mice.
TL;DR: The estrogen receptors ERalpha and ERbeta are the main mediators of estrogen action and estrogens play an important role in a variety of aspects of physiology besides their well acknowledged function in reproduction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of cell culture conditions on primary rat hepatocytes-cell morphology and differential gene expression
Gregor Tuschl,Stefan O. Mueller +1 more
TL;DR: C culturing primary rat hepatocytes in a sandwich between two layers of gelled collagen and in a serum-free medium formulation, appears to be most suitable for long-term in vitro hepatotoxicity screening.
Journal ArticleDOI
Activation of estrogen receptor α and ERβ by 4-methylbenzylidene-camphor in human and rat cells: comparison with phyto- and xenoestrogens
Stefan O. Mueller,Margret Kling,Poppy Arifin Firzani,Astrid Mecky,Eric Duranti,Jacqueline Shields-Botella,Remi Delansorne,Thomas H. Broschard,P.-J. Kramer +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the direct interaction of 4-Methylbenzylidene-camphor (4-MBC) with estrogen receptor (ER) alpha and ERbeta in a series of studies including receptor binding, ER transactivation and functional tests in human and rat cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Overview of in vitro tools to assess the estrogenic and antiestrogenic activity of phytoestrogens
TL;DR: In this review, in vitro test systems available to date for the screening of estrogenic and antiestrogenic activity including mechanism-basedAssays are described and the potency of phytoestrogens determined using these in vitro assays are compared with the potencyof endogenous estrogens and results obtained in vitro areCompared with effects in vivo.
