Urinary Estrogens and Estrogen Metabolites and Subsequent Risk of Breast Cancer among P... - 0 views

  • both 2- and 4-catechol estrogen metabolites bind to the ER with affinities comparable with estradiol, 4-catechol estrogen metabolites have lower dissociation rates than estradiol and an enhanced ability to upregulate ER-dependent processes
  • 2-catechol estrogen metabolites act as either weak mitogens (39) or weak inhibitors of cell proliferation
  • While 16α-hydroxyestrone binds to the ER with lower affinity than estradiol, it binds covalently (41) and leads to a constitutively activated ER
  • ...15 more annotations...
  • 4-hydroxyestradiol and 16α-hydroxyestrone increasing proliferation and decreasing apoptosis in a manner similar to estradiol; however, these effects were achieved only at concentrations 10-fold higher than estradiol (39). In contrast, 2-hydroxyestradiol did not have substantial proliferative or antiapoptotic effects
  • In our study, the associations with both 2-hydroxyestrone and 16α-hydroxyestrone were nonsignificantly inverse and we did not observe a consistent trend or significant associations between the 2-hydroxyestrone:16α-hydroxyestrone ratio and breast cancer risk
  • Ratios of the 3 hydroxylation pathways were not significantly associated with risk although the 2:16-pathway and 4:16-pathway ratios were suggestively inversely associated
  • a significant inverse association with the ratio of parent estrogens to estrogen metabolites
  • several potentially estrogenic and genotoxic mechanisms
  • Estrogen metabolites also can be genotoxic
  • Catechol estrogens can be oxidized into quinones and induce DNA damage directly through the formation of DNA adducts, or indirectly via redox cycling and generation of reactive oxygen species
  • the oxidized forms of the catechol estrogens differ in their ability to damage DNA through adducts, with oxidized 2-catechols forming stable and reversible DNA adducts and oxidized 4-catechols forming unstable adducts, which lead to depurination and mutations
  • 2- and 4-catechols have been shown to produce reactive oxygen species and induce oxidative DNA damage
  • act independently from the ER
  • 16α-Hydroxyestrone also may be genotoxic
  • While the catechol estrogens have estrogenic and genotoxic potential, the methylated catechol estrogens, which are catechol estrogens with one hydroxyl group methylated, have been hypothesized to lower the risk of breast cancer
  • The suggested mechanisms are indirect, by decreasing circulating levels of catechol estrogens and thereby the opportunity for catechols to exert genotoxic or proliferative effects, or direct, by inhibiting tumor growth and inducing apoptosis
  • the balance between phase I (oxidation) and phase II (methylation) metabolism of estrogen may be important in hormonally related cancer development.
  • Despite the estrogenic and genotoxic potential of many of the estrogen metabolites, we only observed a significantly increased breast cancer risk with one estrogen metabolite, 17-epiestriol, which has particularly strong estrogenic activity and binds to both ERα and ERβ with an affinity comparable with estradiol

Saliva as a Medium for Investigating Intra- and Interindividual Differences in Sex Horm... - 0 views

  • These results indicate that daily saliva samples can be combined to clarify the interindividual differences in E2 and PG levels in premenopausal women, and that these interindividual differences may be greater than previously imagined.

Ovarian hormones and reproductive risk factors for breast cancer in premenopausal women... - 0 views

  •  
    this study looked at ovarian sex hormones as it relates to premenopausal women and breast cancer risk.  They used saliva as the test medium to evaluate estradiol and progesterone.

High Testosterone and Low Progesterone Circulating Levels in Premenopausal Patients wit... - 0 views

  •  
    higher Testosterone levels, in conjunction with lower progesterone levels, found in premenopausal women with breast hyperplasia and breast cancer.  The authors point to elevated androgens in breast cancer induction and development.  This same hormone patter, low progesterone/elevated Testosterone, is associated with PCOS in women.

Serum Sex Steroids in Premenopausal Women and Breast Cancer Risk Within the European Pr... - 0 views

  •  
    Study finds that elevated serum Testosterone and androstenedione is associated with an increase risk of breast cancer.  This EPIC study looked at serum hormones in premenopausal women.  This study also found an association with increased breast cancer and low serum progesterone in women.  This was also found in the ORDET study.  This study did not find a link with estrogen.  These are endogenous levels.  Does this translate to exogenous? This theory of elevated androgens and breast cancer was first proposed by Grattarola.

Steroid Hormone Levels during Pregnancy and Incidence of Maternal Breast Cancer - 0 views

  •  
    Women with the highest progesterone levels during pregnancy have an inverse low breast cancer risk.  This association was found with premenopausal breast cancer.  The reduction was upwards of 70%.  One fault of this study is the use of serum hormone levels.

Dietary glycemic index, glycemic load, and the risk of breast cancer in an Italian pros... - 0 views

  • GI is a measure of carbohydrate quality in relation to glucose availability and is independent of quantity, whereas GL is a measure of the total glycemic effect and hence is anindicator of the insulin demand of the diet. High-glycemic diets are in fact generally associated with greater insulin secretion
  • the consumption of large quantities of high-GI foods rather than the consumption of high quantities of carbohydrates is linked to the development of breast cancer.

    High glycemic load and glycemic index associated with increased breast cancer risk in premenopausal women.

Estrogen Metabolism and Breast Cancer : Epidemiology - 0 views

  •  
    Maybe the risks of estrogen metabolism is age dependent?  This Long Island Breast Cancer Study Project found that an increased 2:16alphOH-estrone ratio was associated with a reduced premenopausal, invasive breast cancer risk.  This association declined when looked at in postmenopausal women.
