Description for Handbook on Estrogen Receptors in the Brain
Paperback. Num Pages: 60 pages. BIC Classification: MJN; PSAN; PSBC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 230 x 155. .
The present book covers estrogen, its receptors and estrogen mediated gene regulation in the brain. Further, it explains the mechanism of estrogen action and dysfunction leading to diseases. Briefly, estrogen mediates its multiple functions in the brain through two well-characterised receptors: ER and ERss. Upon binding with estrogen, ER recruits coregulators, which are responsible for tissue specific regulation. When coregulators activate the transcription of a particular gene, they become coactivators; when they repress the activity of particular gene, they are called corepressors. These coregulators make a bridge between the basal transcription machinery and the receptors by protein-protein interaction. Estrogen ... Read more
