This cross talk provides a new mechanism of estrogen mediated gene repression, which may play a role in apo(a) regulation by estrogen. < previous page page_127 next page > < previous page page_128 next page > Page 128 Our study also showed, that the other ovarian steroid hormone, progesterone, had no effect on apo(a) gene expression or plasma levels of apo(a) in transgenic mice. Progesterone also did not affect the apo(a) lowering action of estrogen, when the two were given in combination. These findings suggest, that the progestin component of combined hormone replacement therapy (HRT) preparations may not influence the beneficial effect of estrogen on plasma Lp(a) levels in postmenopausal women.
