title: Characteristics of cyclic nucleotide dependent regulation of cytoplasmic E2 binders in cultured endometrial and breast cells.
abstract: Estradiol binding levels have previously been shown to be increased or decreased by the addition of of cGMP or cAMP respectively to cellular homogenates prepared from human endometrial tissue or from the endometrial cell line HEC 1. Similar cyclic nucleotide dependent effects have now been demonstrated in homogenates prepared from a second endometrial cell line, HEC 50, and from two breast cancer cell lines, CG-5 and T47D. It was previously shown that ATP and Mg2+ are necessary for the generation or inactivation of E2 binding sites. The present study demonstrates that the concentration of K+ and of dithiothreitol can also affect these reactions.
