## Abstract Receptors for glucocorticoids, estrogens, androgens, and thyroid hormones have been detected in mitochondria of various cell types by Western blotting, immunofluorescence labeling, confocal microscopy, and immunogold electron microscopy. A role of these receptors in mitochondrial transc

Thyroid carcinomas no longer accessible to radio-iodide or TSH-suppressive T4 therapy, due to loss of thyroid-specific functions, might be sufficiently re-differentiated by retinoic acid (RA) to be treated by conventional methods again. To help evaluate the feasibility of RA re-differentiation thera
Tumors from patients with primary colon cancer were studied for the presence of steroid hormone receptors for estrogen (EJ, progesterone (Prog), dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and glucocorticoid. Ten of 33 (30%) tumors contained high affinity E2 receptors. Four were males and six females with positive as
The clinical evidence suggests that the steroid hormones may influence the biologic course of tumors of soft tissue. In an attempt to characterize the possible steroid hormone dependency of soft tissue, we studied the incidence and distribution of cytosolic receptors for the steroid hormones in beni
