Biomarker: PR

Histology type: endometrial stromal tumor

Stage: Stage I

Country: Taiwan

Region: Taipei

Study type: retrospective study

Followed up time :

Conclusion: Our results support using clinical Stage I, no residual disease, estrogen receptor/progesterone receptor overexpression as potential biomarkers to select patients with ESS for fertility-preservation surgery (5 such patients were alive and free).

Sample type : tissue

Sample method: immunohistochemistry

Expression pattern : ER/PR overexpression(≥2+)

Expression elevation: Negative (no staining in any tumor cells) or positive (40%) with a grading of ‘‘+’’ for those with weak intensity with <25% frequency of positive cells; ‘‘++’’for 25% to 50% frequency of weak intensity staining; <50% with moderate intensity; or ‘‘+++’’ for moderate or strong intensity with >50% of positive cells.

Statictics: Median;Range

Cohort age: 44;22-71

Funtion Uniprot: The steroid hormones and their receptors are involved in the regulation of eukaryotic gene expression and affect cellular proliferation and differentiation in target tissues. Depending on the isoform, progesterone receptor functions as transcriptional activator or repressor.3 PublicationsCurated Isoform A Ligand-dependent transdominant repressor of steroid hormone receptor transcriptional activity including repression of its isoform B, MR and ER. Transrepressional activity may involve recruitment of corepressor NCOR2.3 Publications2 Publications Isoform B Transcriptional activator of several progesteron-dependent promoters in a variety of cell types. Involved in activation of SRC-dependent MAPK signaling on hormone stimulation.1 Publication Isoform 4 Increases mitochondrial membrane potential and cellular respiration upon stimulation by progesterone.

Biological function from UniProt: #Transcription #Transcription regulation

Molecular function from UniProt:

Tissue specificity from UniProt: In reproductive tissues the expression of isoform A and isoform B varies as a consequence of developmental and hormonal status. Isoform A and isoform B are expressed in comparable levels in uterine glandular epithelium during the proliferative phase of the menstrual cycle. Expression of isoform B but not of isoform A persists in the glands during mid-secretory phase. In the stroma, isoform A is the predominant form throughout the cycle. Heterogeneous isoform expression between the glands of the endometrium basalis and functionalis is implying region-specific responses to hormonal stimuli
