| Core Tip |
Our study, for the first time, demonstrates an increase in expression of estrogen receptor (ER) β compared to ERα in the liver of normal males and females. In addition, ERβ message RNA expression was found to be decreased in hepatitis C virus (HCV)/cirrhosis and HCV/hepatocellular carcinoma livers, while tumor necrosis factor-α expression was increased. Further analysis of the data revealed sex-specific correlations between ERα and ERβ. These findings suggest that changes in ERβ expression are associated with worsening HCV-related disease, and may be one of the sex-dependent factors in cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma pathogenesis. |
