Induction of Osteoblast Differentiation by Selective Activation of Kinase-Mediated Actions of the Estrogen Receptor
12 Dec 2006
Abstract excerpt
Estrogens control gene transcription by cis or trans interactions of the estrogen receptor (ER) with target DNA or via the activation of cytoplasmic kinases. We report that selective activation of kinase-mediated actions of the ER with 4-estren-3alpha,17beta-diol (estren) or an estradiol-dendrimer conjugate, each a synthetic compound that stimulates kinase-mediated ER actions 1,000 to 10,000 times more potently...
