Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Estrogen receptors (ERs) regulate transcription by interacting with regulatory elements in target genes. However, known ER regulatory elements cannot explain the expression profiles of genes activated by estradiol (E ) and selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs). We previously showed that the killer cell lectin-like receptor (NKG2E) gene is regulated by E, tamoxifen, and raloxifene. Here we used the NKG2E gene as a model to investigate the mechanism whereby target genes are regulated by E and SERMs with ERα. The ER regulatory element in the NKG2E promoter was mapped to the -1825 and -1686 region. Full activation of the NKG2E promoter required the collaboration between a transcription factor cluster containing c-jun, heat-shock factor 2, and CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein β and a unique variant estrogen response element (ERE) that has only a two nucleotide spacer between half sites. The cluster elements and the variant ERE were inactive on their own, but the regulation by E and SERMs was restored when the c-jun, heat-shock factor-2, and CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein β cluster was placed upstream of the variant ERE. The activation of the NKG2E gene by E and selective ER modulators was associated with the recruitment of the p160 coactivators glucocorticoid receptor-interacting protein 1 and amplified in breast cancer 1 but not steroid receptor coactivator 1. These studies identified one of the most complex ER regulatory units thus far reported and demonstrate that a cluster of flanking transcription factors collaborate with ER to induce a functional ERE in the NKG2E promoter.
