17 beta-Estradiol (E2), as the main circulating estrogen hormone, regulates many tissue and organ functions in physiology. The effects of E2 on cells are mediated by the transcription factors and estrogen receptor (ER)alpha and ER beta that are encoded by distinct genes. Localized at the pen-membrane, mitochondria, and the nucleus of cells that are dependent on estrogen target tissues, the ERs share similar, as well as distinct, regulatory potentials. Different intracellular localizations of the ERs result in dynamically integrated and finely tuned E2 signaling cascades that orchestrate cellular growth, differentiation, and death. The deregulation of E2-ER signaling plays a critical role in the initiation and progression of target tissue malignancies. A better understanding of the complex regulatory mechanisms that underlie ER actions in response to E2 therefore holds a critical trajectory for the development of novel prognostic and therapeutic approaches with substantial impacts on the systemic management of target tissue diseases.

Functional importance of CXXC5 in E2-driven cellular proliferation Razizadeh, Negin; Muyan, Mesut; Department of Biology (2019) 17β-estradiol (E2) as the main circulating estrogen hormone has an important role in the regulation of various tissues including mammary tissue. E2 effects target tissue functions by binding to the nuclear receptors, ERα and β. ERs regulate the expression of target genes. Previous studies conducted in our laboratory indicate that one of these estrogen responsive genes is CXXC5 which is regulated by ERα. CXXC5 has a highly conserved zinc-finger CXXC domain, which makes it a member of zinc-finger CXXC domain ...
Cloning and initial protein characterization of an estrogen responsive gene: YPEL2 Güpür, Gizem; Muyan, Mesut; Department of Biology (2014) 17β-estradiol (E2), the main circulating estrogen in the body, is involved in physiological regulation of many tissue and organ functions, including mammary tissue. E2 is also involved in target tissue malignancies. E2 regulates cellular proliferation, differentiation and death in target tissues. The lasting effects of E2 on cells are mediated by estrogen receptor and β that are the products of distinct genes and act as transcription factors. Upon binding to E2, the activated ER regulates the expression of ...
The regulation of the CXXC5 gene expression Yaşar, Pelin; Muyan, Mesut; Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics (2021-1-19) 17β-estradiol (E2) is the main circulating estrogen hormone in the body and is involved in the physiological and pathophysiological regulation of various tissue notably mammary tissue functions. E2 is responsible for cellular proliferation, differentiation, and/or death in target tissues. Our previous microarray studies suggested that expression of CXXC5 is regulated by E2-ERα through ERE-dependent signaling pathway and I verified that the CXXC5 transcript levels are augmented in response to E2. As a member...
CELL CYCLE-DEPENDENT REGULATION OF CXXC5 SYNTHESIS Demiralay, Öykü Deniz; Muyan, Mesut; Department of Biology (2022-8-22) 17β-estradiol (E2) is the main estrogen in circulation and has many physiological effects on various tissues, including the mammary tissue. CXXC5 is an estrogen-responsive gene product that binds to nonmethylated CpG dinucleotides on DNA. CXXC5 synthesis shows fluctuation in the cell cycle. This led to our prediction that the level of CXXC5 synthesis is regulated through the cell cycle. To test this prediction, I investigated the synthesis of CXXC5 in cell cycle-synchronized cells for every 6h up to 36h. I ...
Initial characterization of CXXC5 as a putative DNA binding protein Yaşar, Pelin; Muyan, Mesut; Department of Biology (2015) 17β-estradiol (E2), the main circulating estrogen hormone, is involved in the physiological and pathophysiological regulation of various tissue notably mammary tissue functions. E2 is responsible for the cellular proliferation, differentiation and/or death in target tissue. The E2 effect is mediated by the nuclear receptors, estrogen receptor α and β, as ligand-dependent transcription factors. Upon binding of E2, ER is converted to an active form and regulates the expression of target genes primarily throug...
