متن کاملEstrogen Receptors in Glucose Homeostasis
Metabolic diseases affect more than 230 million people worldwide with an expectancy to increase to around 350 million in the coming 25 years. It is currently the fourth leading cause of death by disease. The metabolic syndrome refers to a group of interrelated metabolic abnormalities that include disturbed glucose homeostasis, insulin resistance (IR), increased body weight and abdominal fat acc...
متن کاملThe role of estrogen receptors in intestinal homeostasis and disease
Estrogen has a pivotal role in many biological functions in both reproductive and non-reproductive organs, mediating actions through its receptors, estrogen receptor α (ERα) and ERβ. The expression of ERs is widespread in the body and is implicated in normal physiological processes as well as in disease conditions, including intestinal diseases. Immunohistochemical and functional analyses have ...
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 کاملPlasma membrane estrogen receptors exist and functions as dimers.
A small pool of estrogen receptors (ERalpha and -beta) localize at the plasma membrane and rapidly signal to affect cellular physiology. Although nuclear ERs function mainly as homodimers, it is unknown whether membrane-localized ER exists or functions with similar requirements. We report that the endogenous ER isoforms at the plasma membrane of breast cancer or endothelial cells exist predomin...
