Example sentences for: serms

How can you use “serms” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • The PGC-1 related protein PERC also binds ERα preferentially, and potentiates ERα activity more strongly than that of ERβ [ 38 ] . We recently observed that ERα binds the C-terminal NR interacting regions of N-CoR and SMRT in the presence of SERMs but not estrogens [ 39 ] . In this study, we report that ERβ interactions with N-CoR and SMRT are promoted by agonists and inhibited by SERMs.

  • Moreover, these interactions were suppressed by SERMs (ICI, raloxifene and tamoxifen).

  • ERα enhances AP-1 activity in response to estrogens, [ 28 29 ] but ERβ inhibits AP-1 activity in response to estrogens [ 29 30 31 ] . ERβ also completely suppresses ERα activity at the cyclin D1 promoter and even suppresses the activity of an ERα mutant that is selectively superactive at AP-1 sites and CREs [ 29 ] . Finally, ERβ shows a unique capacity to enhance AP-1 activity in response to selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) such as raloxifene, tamoxifen and ICI 182,780/Faslodex (ICI) [ 30 31 32 ] . Together, these observations suggest that there are fundamental differences in the way that the ERs bind unspecified cofactors that modulate gene expression, and that some of these cofactors must play a role in differential ER activity at AP-1 sites.

  • 2shows that the ERβ-LBD bound N-CoR in the presence of agonists and phytoestrogens, but not SERMs.

  • Control binding experiments performed in parallel confirmed that ERα bound to N-CoR in the presence of SERMs, and not estradiol (Fig.
