Estrogen receptors study of endometrial cancer

Tamlen

I came across this new research today and thought some of you might want to know about it.

The study found that endometrial tumors with high estrogen receptor expression have a poor prognosis if they also have high amounts of glucocorticoid receptor, which is a stress hormone receptor.
