[On the basis of our experimental evidence PIC and MYR may contribute to the estrogenicity of red wine since: (1) they transactivate endogenous ER alpha; (2) they activate the agonist-dependent activation function (AF) 2 of ER alpha and ER beta in the context of the Gal4 chimeric proteins; (3) they rapidly induce the nuclear immunodetection of ER alpha; (4) they regulate the expression of diverse estrogen target genes; (5) they compete with 17beta-estradiol for binding to ER alpha and ER beta; and--as a biological counterpart of the aforementioned abilities--(6) they exert stimulatory effects on the proliferation of MCF7 cells.].
