Assessment of cardiovascular risk in patients with erectile dysfunction: focus on the diabetic patient.

abstract：:Progesterone (P(4)) and estradiol (E(2)) regulate many cell functions through their interaction with specific intracellular receptors, which require the participation of coactivators such as SRC-1 and SRC-3 for enhancing their transcriptional activity. Coactivator expression is altered in many cancers and in some of t...
