“Incorporation of disodium molybdate in the homogenization buffer for breast cancer specimens was shown to inhibit a time and temperature dependent loss of estrogen (ER) and progesterone (PR) receptor binding capacity in the cytosols.”

“ Sodium molybdate blocked either ATP or temperature induced activation of glucocorticoid, progesterone and androgen receptor complexes but only partially blocked estrogen activation.”
“The presence of sodium molybdate during tissue homogenization is known to increase the number of cytosol binding sites for glucocorticoids, progesterone , androgens and oestrogens.”
