Estrogen Receptors α and β in Human Testis: Both Isoforms are Expressed

1 Jan 2009

Abstract excerpt

Currently, clinical and experimental evidence point to an essential role of estrogens and estrogen receptors in male fertility. The expression of estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) and beta (ERbeta) in human testis has been described. However, some studies were unable to detect ERalpha, while others report the expression of both isoforms, with ERbeta presenting a wide distribution within somatic and germinal...
