Estrogen effects on vascular inflammation are age dependent: role of estrogen receptors.
OBJECTIVE 17β-Estradiol (E2) offers cardiovascular protection in young female animals and postmenopausal women. In contrast, randomized trials of menopausal hormones performed in older women have shown harm or no cardiovascular benefit. We hypothesize that E2 effects on vascular inflammation are age dependent. APPROACH AND RESULTS Young (10 weeks) and aged (52 weeks) female C57BL/6 mice were ...
متن کاملEffects of treadmill exercise training on cerebellar estrogen and estrogen receptors, serum estrogen, and motor coordination performance of ovariectomized rats
Objective(s): The present study aims at examining the motor coordination performance, serum and cerebellar estrogen, as well as ERβ levels, of ovariectomized rats (as menopausal model) following regular exercise. Materials and Methods:Ten female Sprague Dawley ratsaged 12 weeks old were randomly divided into two groups; all of which underwent ovariectomy. The first group was treated with regula...
متن کاملEstrogen dependent signaling in reproductive tissues - a role for estrogen receptors and estrogen related receptors.
Estrogens play a fundamental role in the development and normal physiological function of multiple tissue systems and have been implicated in the ontogeny of cancers. The biological effects of estrogens are classically mediated via interaction with cognate nuclear receptors. The relative expression of ER subtypes/variants varies between cells within different tissues and this alters the respons...
متن کاملEffects of estrogen on vascular inflammation: a matter of timing.
OBJECTIVE Our study aims to determine the role of time of menopause on vascular inflammation biomarkers and how it affects their modulation by estrogen and raloxifene in postmenopausal women. METHODS AND RESULTS Uterine arteries from 68 postmenopausal women were divided into 3 segments and cultured for 24 hours in tissue culture media containing 17β-estradiol (100 nmol/L), raloxifene (100 nmo...
متن کاملAge alters cerebrovascular inflammation and effects of estrogen.
In young adult females, estrogen treatment suppresses the cerebrovascular inflammatory response; this is mediated in part via NF-kappaB, a key regulator of inflammatory genes. To examine whether age modifies effects of estrogen on vascular inflammation in the brain, female rats, 3 and 12 mo of age, were ovariectomized; half were treated with estrogen for 4 wk. Cerebral blood vessels were isolat...
