Inmunohistochemical Evaluation of Estrogen Receptors Alpha and Beta in Normal Inferior Turbinate Mucosa
It has been postulated that the nasal mucosa, like other human tissues, is affected by a complex interactive network of neuropeptides, cytokines, allergic and inflammatory mediators and hormones such as estrogen, in which associations between symptoms (e.g. nasal stuffiness and coryza) and hormonal...
