Lipid metabolism disorders commonly occur during menopause. Estrogen deficiency has been shown to lead excessive energy intake and abnormal lipid in ovariectomized rats, resulting obesity. Probiotics exhibit anti-obesity properties, their underlying mechanism widely reported. In this study, we demonstrated the metabolic benefits of Lactobacillus plantarum CCFM1180 suppressing appetite, c...

background: phytoestrogens, a group of plant-derived polyphenolic compounds have recently come into considerable attention due to the increasing information on their potential adverse effects in human health. some of phytoestrogens show estrogenic activity that may be carcinogenic for human. in the present study, we investigated the transcriptional effects of variety of phytoestrogens on the bo...

Breast cancer is the most prevalent neoplasm and second leading cause of death among females in Kenya. Estrogen its metabolites are known risk factors for breast cancer. Polymorphisms these genes susceptibility unique different populations. This study aimed to determine probable associations between estrogen-metabolizing gene variations other Kenyan women. Buffy coat samples were obtained from ...

estrogen might play an important role in the pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus type 2. estrogens inhibit diabetes via distinct mechanisms particularly by reducing both hyperglycemia and plasma insulin levels. estrogen exerts its physiological effects mainly through estrogen receptors including α and β types. estrogen receptors are found in many tissues that participate in the pathogenesis of ty...

Background: Due to its minimal systematic adverse effects, transdermal estrogen is widely used for the prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.The present meta-analysis aimed to clarify the effects of transdermal estrogen on bone mineral density (BMD) of postmenopausal women.Methods: Studies were identified by searching electronic databases including Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, Embase...

introduction: lower level of estrogen hormone is considered as an important factor for loss of learning and memory in postmenopausal women. although estrogen replacement therapy is used for compensation, but long-term usage of estrogen is associated with a higher risk of hormonedependent cancers. phytoestrogens, due to fewer side effects, have been proposed to prevent menopause-related cognitiv...

estrogen (e2) has neuroprotective effects on blood-brain-barrier (bbb) after traumatic brain injury (tbi). in order to investigate the roles of estrogen receptors (ers) in these kind of effects, er-α antagonist (mpp) and, er-β antagonist (phtpp), or non-selective estrogen receptors antagonist (ici 182780) were administered as regulators of cns cytokines levels and neuroinflammation after tbi. m...
