11. Estrogen receptor gene activity within the brain and the relation to psychiatric disorders : mapping and function
Sammanfattning : Estrogens have for a long time been known to regulate neuroendocrine functions in the central nervous system (CNS), primarily related to reproduction. In recent years estrogens have been found to also modulate many other brain functions, for example mood and cognition. LÄS MER
12. Estrogens and lymphoma growth
Sammanfattning : Lymphomas are generally not considered as endocrine-associated cancers. Nevertheless, most lymphoid malignancies show a gender differencein incidence and prognosis, with males being more affected.The molecular mechanism for this gender difference is unknown. LÄS MER
13. Prolactin and growth hormone in breast cancer. Studies of human breast cancer and transgenic tumor models
Sammanfattning : Prolactin (PRL) and growth hormone (GH) are two related pituitary peptide hormones of importance during normal mammary gland development. Furthermore, their involvement in development and growth of malignant mammary tumors has been suggested by several investigators. LÄS MER
14. Immunomodulation by estrogen and estren
Sammanfattning : Estrogen affects the development and regulation of the immune system. Treatment of gonadectomized mice with estrogen results in suppression of T and B lymphopoiesis, as well as decreased delayed type hypersensitivity reaction, granulocyte mediated inflammation and levels of IL-6 in serum.

15. Roles of ERα and ERβ in Normal and Disrupted Sex Differentiation in Japanese Quail
Sammanfattning : Exposure to xenoestrogens during development has been shown to impair sexual differentiation in various species. The major aim of this thesis was to elucidate the respective roles of the two estrogen receptors ERα and ERβ in normal and disrupted differentiation of sex organs and copulatory behavior in the Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica).
