1. 1. Estrogen and Glucocorticoid Metabolism

   Författare :Therése Andersson; Tommy Olsson; Cecilia Mattsson; Ingegerd Söderström; Jonas Burén; Agneta Holmäng; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; 11β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type 1; Estrogen; Cortisol; Adipose tissue; Liver; Menopause; Ovariectomy; Adipocyte; Estrogen Receptor β; Endocrinology; Endokrinologi; medicin; Medicine;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death among women in Sweden. The risk of CVD increases rapidly after the menopause. A major contributing factor may be the redistribution of adipose tissue, from the peripheral to central depots, associated with menopause. LÄS MER

3. 2. Folate - Associations with breast cancer depending on intake, metabolism, genetic variation and estrogen receptor status

   Författare :Ulrika Ericson; Diabetes - kardiovaskulär sjukdom; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; folate; B-vitamins; breast cancer; diet; epidemiology; nutrition; plasma; polymorphism; estrogen receptor α; estrogen receptor β; reproducibility; prospective;

   Sammanfattning : Folate is a B-vitamin that may influence cancer development via its role as methyl donor for DNA synthesis and methylation. Plant foods contain many bioactive compounds including folate and fiber. Results from the Malmö Diet and Cancer (MDC) cohort indicate lower breast cancer risk at high fiber intake. LÄS MER

4. 3. Plant foods, plasma enterolactone and breast cancer - with a focus on estrogen receptor status and genetic variation

   Författare :Emily Sonestedt; Diabetes - kardiovaskulär sjukdom; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; plant foods; breast cancer; fibre; epidemiology; lignans; enterolactone; plasma; estrogen receptor α; estrogen receptor β; polymorphisms; reliability; nutrition; prospective;

   Sammanfattning : Diets high in fibre have previously been associated with decreased risk of breast cancer in the Malmö Diet and Cancer cohort. Several potent compounds may exist in high-fibre diets that might protect against breast cancer, for example lignans. LÄS MER

5. 4. Estrogen and Serotonin – old dogs, new tricks, Implications for pancreatic beta-cell function

   Författare :Alexander Balhuizen; Celiaki och diabetes; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Diabetes; Estrogen; Serotonin; Pancreatic islets; Insulin resistance; Beta-cell function; GPCR;

   Sammanfattning : Islet hormone secretion is tightly regulated by metabolic status as well as local and circulating factors. These factors can activate different receptors on the pancreatic islet cells, for instance G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). LÄS MER

7. 5. Estrogen receptor β signalling in mammary epithelial and breast cancer cells

   Författare :Karolina Lindberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Estrogens are key players in the etiology and progression of breast cancer, and mediate their effects through the estrogen receptors (ERα and ERβ). ERα plays important roles in proliferation and progression of breast cancer, whereas a distinct function of ERβ in the initiation and development of breast cancer is not yet clearly established.
