Tissue Specific Effects of Loss of Estrogen During Menopause and Aging

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2012
The roles of estrogens have been best studied in the breast, breast cancers and in the female reproductive tract. However, estrogens have important functions in almost every tissue in the body. Recent clinical trials such as the Women’s Health Initiative

Sex-dependent effects of multiple acute concurrent stresses on memory: a role for hippocampal estrogens

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2022
Memory disruption commonly follows chronic stress, whereas acute stressors are generally benign. However, acute traumas such as mass shootings or natural disasters—lasting minutes to hours and consisting of simultaneous physical, social, and emotional ...

Neuronal differentiation dictates estrogen-dependent survival and ERK1/2 kinetic by means of caveolin-1. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Estrogens promote a plethora of effects in the CNS that profoundly affect both its development and mature functions and are able to influence proliferation, differentiation, survival and neurotransmission.

Potential role of the interaction between equine estrogens, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in the prevention of coronary heart and neurodegenerative diseases in postmenopausal women

Lipids in Health and Disease, 2003
Background An inverse relationship between the level of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and coronary heart disease (CHD) has been reported. In contrast, oxidized HDL (oHDL) has been shown to induce neuronal death and may play an important role in the ...

Effect of estrogens on boar sperm capacitation in vitro

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2010
Background Mammalian sperm must undergo a series of controlled molecular processes in the female reproductive tract called capacitation before they are capable of penetrating and fertilizing the egg.

Estrogens and Development [PDF]

Environmental Health Perspectives, 1987
The normal development of the genital organs of mammals, including humans, is under hormonal control. A role for the female sex hormone estrogen in this process is still unclear. However, exposure of experimental animals or humans to the potent exogenous estrogen, diethylstilbestrol (DES), results in persistent differentiation effects.

Estrogens in Human Male Gonadotropin Secretion and Testicular Physiology From Infancy to Late Puberty

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
Several reports in humans as well as transgenic mouse models have shown that estrogens play an important role in male reproduction and fertility. Estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) and beta (ERβ) are expressed in different male tissues including the brain ...

Structural plasticity of the hippocampus in response to estrogens in female rodents

Molecular Brain, 2019
It is well established that estrogens affect neuroplasticity in a number of brain regions. In particular, estrogens modulate and mediate spine and synapse formation as well as neurogenesis in the hippocampal formation.
