Details for receptor: progesterone receptor

EndoNet ID: ENR00085

To link to the content of EndoNet use the EndoNet ID that is given on the detail pages in the format ENX0000, where X is a place holder for the type of the component (e. g. R for receptor or C for anatomical structure).
As URL for the linking append this ID to the detail page for this type of component.
For an hormone that would be:

http://endonet.bioinf.med.uni-goettingen.de/hormone/ENH00000

It is also possible to use the search of EndoNet to link to the right detail page. The URL should look like

http://endonet.bioinf.med.uni-goettingen.de/search/ENC00000
If the search pattern is unambigious the user is directed to the corresponding detail page.

Synonyms

  • PR
  • PGR
  • progesterone receptor
  • NR3C3

General information

  • PgR in the normal mammary tissue varies with the degree of lobular development, in parallel with cell proliferation. [1]
  • Normal and malignant human endometrium express immunohistochemically progesterone receptor. [2]
  • In the corpus luteum, in the period from ovulation to the mid-secretory phase, PR immunoreactivity was observed in a large number of both the luteinized granulosa and the theca cells. [3]

Binding hormones

  • progesterone

Anatomical structures with this receptor

  • corpus_luteum

  • cell_of_endometrium_of_uterus

    Influences

    • negative IL-11
      • Progesterone attenuates IL-11 secretion and mRNA expression. [4]
    • positive TGF-beta 2
      • Northern blot analysis confirmed an increase in TGF-beta 2 mRNA with progesterone treatment. [5]
  • mammary_gland

    Induced phenotypes

    • mammary gland morphogenesis
      • The progesterone receptor exists as two isoforms, PRA and PRB, differing by the length of the N-terminal end and originating from translation reinitiation at an internal methionine codon. Studies with transgenic mice show that the ratio of both forms is essential for proper development of the mammary gland. [6]
  • hypothalamus

    Influences

    • positive GnRH-I
      • ovairan progesterione is essential for the secretion of GnRH, mediated by interaction with cognate intracellular progesterone receptor. [7]
  • ovary

    Induced phenotypes

    • mammary gland development
      • The ovarian steroid hormone progesterone, important for female reproductive functions, including uterine and mammary gland development. [8]
    • maintainance of pregnancy
      • The ovarian steroid hormone progesterone, important for female reproductive functions, including maintainance of pregnancy [8]
    • sexual behavior
      • The ovarian steroid hormone progesterone, important for female reproductive functions, including sexual behavior. [8]
    • regulation of ovulation
      • The ovarian steroid hormone progesterone is important for female reproductive functions, including ovulation. [8]
  • macrophage
