    Författare :Anna Strandqvist; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Sex differentiation depends on a complex set of molecular events. These are at one point initiated by SRY gene expression and involve gene transcription, which in turn can be affected by the prescence or absence of different co-factors, availability of and exposure to sex hormones, presence and sensitivity of steroid receptors that directs growth and development.

  3. 42. Effects of sex steroids on normal human breast : studies in vivo using microdialysis and in vitro in cell culture

    Författare :Charlotta Dabrosin; Bo von Schoultz; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Prolonged exposure to sex steroids may constitute a risk factor for the development of breast cancer. The biological mechanisms involved in breast carcinogenesis are not well understood. LÄS MER

  4. 43. Sex steroid hormone receptors : inner ear and hearing

    Författare :Rusana Simonoska; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : It is well known that hearing loss is more profound in elderly males than females, regardless of noise exposure. Also, an age-related hearing decline starts much earlier in males, already after the age of 30, while in women, the decline does not start until the age of 50. LÄS MER

  5. 44. Endometrial carcinoma : steroid hormones and receptors in relation to proliferation

    Författare :Karin Boman; Torbjörn Bäckström; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The significance of the hormonal milieu for endometrial changes is as well-known as its link with endometrial carcinoma. Unopposed oestradiol treatment is shown to increase the incidence for this cancer. Obesity leads to elevated levels of oestrogens and is a risk factor for endometrial carcinoma. LÄS MER

  7. 45. The role of steroid hormones in skeletal muscle metabolism

    Författare :Firoozeh Salehzadeh; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Steroid hormones play important roles in the regulation of whole body metabolism. Skeletal muscle is an insulin-responsive organ with a key role in overall substrate metabolism. Disturbances in skeletal muscle metabolism, as a result of hormonal imbalance may be an underlying defect in metabolic disease. LÄS MER
