Abstract: Abstract: Androgen and estrogen stimulate cell differentiation and tissue growth through specific interactions with respective receptor (AR or ER), thereby playing critical roles in numerous physiological processes. Dysfunctions of either hormones or receptors lead to various diseases. Selective AR or ER modulators possess ideal pharmacological profiles in disease treatment. Based upon the latest developments in genomics, molecular biology, cellular biology and bioinformatics, etc., new technologies or experimental methods have been applied to screen novel selective AR or ER modulators and thus, significantly accelerated the pace of drug discovery.
Key words: androgen receptor; estrogen receptor; selective receptor modulator
