The arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus represents a key center for the control of appetite and feeding through the regulation of 2 key neuronal populations, notably agouti-related peptide/neuropeptide Y and proopimelanocortin (POMC)/cocaine- and amp

The proglucagon gene is expressed not only in the pancreas and intestine but also in the hypothalamus. Proglucagon-derived peptides have emerged as potential regulators of energy homeostasis. Whether leptin, insulin, or cAMP activation controls progl

Overexpression of steroid receptor coactivator (SRC)-1 and SRC-3 is associated with cancer initiation, metastasis, advanced disease, and resistance to chemotherapy. In most of these cases, SRC-1 and SRC-3 have been shown to promote tumor cell growth

The inability of the ss-cell to meet the demand for insulin brought about by insulin resistance leads to type 2 diabetes. In adults, ss-cell replication is one of the mechanisms thought to cause the expansion of ss-cell mass. Efforts to treat diabete

Prostate cancer invariably recurs after androgen deprivation therapy. Growth of this recurrent/androgen-independent form of prostate cancer may be due to increased androgen receptor (AR) transcriptional activity in the absence of androgen. This ligan

FSH is produced by the pituitary gonadotrope to regulate gametogenesis. Steroid hormones, including androgens, progestins, and glucocorticoids, have all been shown to stimulate expression of the FSHβ subunit in primary pituitary cells and rodent mod

The cholesterol side-chain cleavage enzyme, P450scc, initiates biosynthesis of all steroid hormones. Adrenal and gonadal P450scc expression requires steroidogenic factor-1 (SF1), but P450scc expression in human placental JEG-3 cells utilizes an SF1-i

We evaluated the signaling pathways involved in regulating vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a potent angiogenic growth factor, in response to natural and synthetic progestins in breast cancer cells. Inhibition of the phosphoinositide-3′-k

Hepatic glucose production by gluconeogenesis is the main source of glucose during fasting and contributes significantly to hyperglycemia in diabetes mellitus. Accordingly, glucose metabolism is tightly controlled by a variety of hormones including i

In classical models of nuclear steroid hormone receptor function, ligand binds receptor, heat shock proteins dissociate, and receptor dimers enter or are withheld in the nucleus and interact with coregulatory molecules to mediate changes in gene expr
