Reversal of bone loss in mice by nongenotropic signaling of sex steroids.

Science 298 , 843-846, (2002)

We show that sex steroids protect the adult murine skeleton through a mechanism that is distinct from that used to preserve the mass and function of reproductive organs. The classical genotropic actions of sex steroid receptors are dispensable for their bone ...

The nongenotropic synthetic ligand 4-estren-3alpha17beta-diol is a high-affinity genotropic androgen receptor agonist.

Mol. Pharmacol. 67 , 744-748, (2005)

The nongenotropic ligand estren (Science 298:843-846, 2002) was evaluated for its transcriptional activity mediated by the human androgen receptor (AR). Our results show that estren can bind, translocate, transactivate, and regulate two known target genes of ...

The synthetic estrogen 4-estren-3 alpha,17 beta-diol (estren) induces estrogen-like neuroprotection.

Neurobiol. Dis. 19 , 331-339, (2005)

Estrogen has demonstrated neuroprotective properties, which may underlie the observed preventive effect of estrogen-based hormone therapy (HT) against the development of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease. Deleterious side effects of HT h...

Estren promotes androgen phenotypes in primary lymphoid organs and submandibular glands.

BMC Immunol. 6 , 16, (2005)

Estrogens and androgens have extensive effects on the immune system, for example they suppress both T and B lymphopoiesis in thymus and bone marrow. Submandibular glands are sexually dimorphic in rodents, resulting in larger granular convoluted tubules in mal...
