Non-genomic oestrogen receptor signal in B lymphocytes: An approach towards therapeutic interventions for infection, autoimmunity and cancer.

The non-genomic membrane bound oestrogen receptor (mER) regulates intracellular signals through receptor-ligand interactions. The mER, along with G-protein coupled oestrogen receptor GPR 30 (GPER), induces diverse cell signalling pathways in murine lymphocytes. The mER isoform ER-alpha46 has recently been demonstrated in human B and T lymphocytes as an analogue receptor for chemokine CCL18, the signalling events of which are not clearly understood. Ligand-induced mER and GPER signalling events are shared with BCR, CD19 mediated intracellular signalling through phospholipase C, PIP2/IP3/PI3 mediated activation of Akt, MAP kinase, and mTOR. Oestrogen has the ability to induce CD40-mediated activation of B cells. The complete signalling pathways of mER, GPR30 and their interaction with other signals are targeted areas for novel drug development in B cells during infection, autoimmunity and cancer. Therefore, an in depth investigation is critical for determining shared signal outputs during B cell activation. Here, we focus on the mode of action of membrane bound ER in B cells as therapeutic checkpoints.
