Am J Physiol Endocrinol Metab
. 2009 Apr;
297(1):E124-33.
PMID: 19366879
Glucose uptake and homeostasis are regulated mainly by skeletal muscle (SM), white adipose tissue (WAT), pancreas, and the liver. Participation of estradiol in this regulation is still under intense investigation....

Mol Cell Endocrinol
. 2008 Aug;
295(1-2):24-31.
PMID: 18692545
Pregnancy is accompanied by hyperestrogenism, however, the role of estrogens in the gestational-induced insulin resistance is unknown. Skeletal muscle plays a fundamental role in this resistance, where GLUT4 regulates glucose...

PLoS Genet
. 2008 Jun;
4(6):e1000108.
PMID: 18584035
Estrogen receptors (ER) are important regulators of metabolic diseases such as obesity and insulin resistance (IR). While ERalpha seems to have a protective role in such diseases, the function of...

PMID: 17522255
Interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome is a disease seen mostly in women, and symptoms tend to be worse premenopausally or during ovulation. The four cardinal symptoms of interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome...

Inzunza J, Morani A, Cheng G, Warner M, Hreinsson J, Gustafsson J, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2007 Jan;
104(2):600-5.
PMID: 17197418
Ovulation rarely occurs in mice in which the estrogen receptor beta (ERbeta) gene has been inactivated (ERbeta-/- mice). Here, we investigated whether this subfertility is due to a defect in...

Hartman J, Lindberg K, Morani A, Inzunza J, Strom A, Gustafsson J
Cancer Res
. 2006 Dec;
66(23):11207-13.
PMID: 17145865
Estrogens, which are stimulators of growth of both the normal breast and malignant breast, mediate their effects through two estrogen receptors (ER), namely ERalpha and ERbeta. ERalpha mediates the proliferative...

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2006 Nov;
103(48):18350-5.
PMID: 17110437
In this study, we compared the uterine tissue of estrogen receptor (ER)beta(-/-) mice and their WT littermates for differences in morphology, proliferation [the percentage of labeled cells 2 h after...

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2006 Apr;
103(18):7165-9.
PMID: 16636272
Estrogen receptor beta (ERbeta) is highly expressed in both type I and II pneumocytes as well as bronchiolar epithelial cells. ERalpha is not detectable in the adult lung. Lungs of...

PMID: 15187231
We have previously reported epithelial cellular hyperplasia in ventral prostates (VP) of mice lacking estrogen receptor beta (ER beta). To investigate the causes of this phenomenon, we measured cellular proliferation...
