Summary
This gene encodes a member of the family of estrogen receptors and superfamily of nuclear receptor transcription factors. The gene product contains an N-terminal DNA binding domain and C-terminal ligand binding domain and is localized to the nucleus, cytoplasm, and mitochondria. Upon binding to 17beta-estradiol or related ligands, the encoded protein forms homo- or hetero-dimers that interact with specific DNA sequences to activate transcription. Some isoforms dominantly inhibit the activity of other estrogen receptor family members. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been fully characterized. [provided by RefSeq].

- Immunohistochemical examination of ER-beta is clinically important in patients with breast cancer treated with tamoxifen monotherapy.
- Results identify single nucleotide polymorphisms that are significantly associated with hip fractures in a Chinese population.
- Measuring ER-beta isoforms in clinical breast cancer could provide a more comprehensive picture of patient outcome, complementing ERalpha
- Our data suggest that ESR2 might be a susceptibility marker for epithelial ovarian cancer
- Altered levels of estrogen receptor (ER) subtypes resulting in an increased ERalpha:ERbeta ratio were found in patients with colorectal cancer, with significantly greater alterations in men than in women
- Different from ERbeta, p53 interacts with HDAC1 and CtBP1 and forms an inhibiting transcriptional complex that could compete for binding to Sp1 sites with ERalpha transcriptional complex and inhibit BRCA2 transcription more significantly
- There was no significant association between ER-beta expression and the classical breast cancer biopathological parameters. ER-beta was associated with a more aggressive clinical course and a higher risk of relapse in node-positive PgR-negative tumors.
- ER-beta transcripts are expressed in human skin appendages and dermis, but barely detectable in epidermis. No site difference between face, arm, or hip. ER-beta mRNA levels are approximately 10-fold lower than those of ER-alpha in human skin.
- A comparison of ERs in tissues taken from gastric tumors and adjacent gastric mucosa revealed a loss of ERbeta and a gain of ERalpha in the tumor cells. The presence of ERbeta cx was identified for the first time in gastric tumors
