We also studied the more significant mechanisms related to estrogen action, which include: direct genotoxicity, hyperprolactinemia, inflammation, and receptor-mediated action. In addition, we analyzed the functions of the known estrogen receptors (alpha and beta) in diseases of the prostate. The evidence observed suggests that estrogen receptor alpha plays an essential role in the development of both the normal prostate and the cancer, whereas estrogen receptor beta is related to the differentiation of the prostatic epithelial tissue and numerous antiproliferative actions in prostate cancer. Nevertheless, some of their isoforms are associated with mechanisms of cancer initiation and progression.
