Possible roles for glucocorticoid signalling in breast cancer
2018, Molecular and Cellular EndocrinologyCitation Excerpt :Estrogen regulation of GR expression has been observed in breast cancer cell lines (Krishnan et al., 2001; Hegde et al., 2016). In breast cancer cell lines, co-administration of glucocorticoids and estradiol have been shown to alter the underlying behaviour of the cell and antagonise estrogen action (Hegde et al., 2016; Zhou et al., 1989). While in these studies it is not possible to dissect out the impact of ERβ compared to ERα, the majority of breast cancer studies have focused on ERα due to its greater documented significance in breast cancers.
Clinical and Genomic Crosstalk between Glucocorticoid Receptor and Estrogen Receptor α In Endometrial Cancer
2018, Cell ReportsCitation Excerpt :GR and ER have been shown to alter each other’s regulatory and phenotypic roles. GR expression is associated with good outcomes in ER-positive breast cancer and poor outcomes in ER-negative breast cancer (Pan et al., 2011), which is consistent with dexamethasone-blocking estrogen-induced growth in breast cancer cells (Zhou et al., 1989). When both steroid hormone receptors are active in breast cancer cells, GR affects the genomic interactions of ER (Miranda et al., 2013).
Transcriptomic profiling as a screening tool to detect trenbolone treatment in beef cattle
2014, Research in Veterinary ScienceGlucocorticoids and estrogens modulate the NF-κB pathway differently in the micro- and macrovasculature
2013, Medical HypothesesCitation Excerpt :Similarly, estrogens promote growth in breast cell lines, whereas glucocorticoids inhibit such growth [45]. On the other hand, estrogens block osteoclast development and activity, whereas glucocorticoids induce osteoclast formation [51,59]. Contrary to the aforementioned antagonistic activity of estrogens and glucocorticoids, a synergistic effect has been found on endothelial cells (ECs) of the micro and macrovasculature.
Interaction of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) with estrogen receptor (ER) α and activator protein 1 (AP1) in dexamethasone-mediated interference of ERα activity
2013, Journal of Biological ChemistryCitation Excerpt :We suggest that this interaction leads to GR-mediated repression of ERα transcriptional activity. GCs have been shown to inhibit ERα activity (39), E2-ERα target gene expression (9, 39), and ER-positive breast cancer cell proliferation in vitro (9, 61) and in the mouse xenograft model (38). However, the molecular mechanisms underlying such inhibitory effects are poorly understood.
Mechanisms and significance of nuclear receptor auto- and cross-regulation
2011, General and Comparative EndocrinologyCitation Excerpt :Estrogen, together with progesterone, is critical for normal mammary gland development where it promotes cell proliferation (reviewed by Sutherland et al., 1998). In breast cancer cell lines, glucocorticoids prevent estrogen-mediated cell proliferation and the increase in PR expression (Zhou et al., 1989). Antagonistic actions between glucocorticoids and estrogen are also observed in bone, where estrogens reduce bone loss while glucocorticoids promote it (Gallagher et al., 2001; Rackoff and Rosen, 1998).
