Steroid signalling in the ovarian surface epithelium (2005)
Journal Article
Rae, M. T., & Hillier, S. G. (2005). Steroid signalling in the ovarian surface epithelium. Trends in Endocrinology and Metabolism, 16(7), 327-333. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tem.2005.07.002

Human ovarian surface epithelium (HOSE) undergoes serial injury-repair with each ovulation, which is probably why most ovarian epithelial cancers arise there. Considering the proposed inflammatory aetiology of ovarian cancer, anti-inflammatory steroi... Read More about Steroid signalling in the ovarian surface epithelium.

Epidemiological and animal studies strongly indicate that the environment experienced in utero determines, in part, an individual’s likelihood of developing cardiovascular disease in later life. This risk has been further linked to impaired kidney fu...
