Effects of 17-β estradiol on neurogenesis in the hippocampus of ovariectomized mice
Background & Aims: Adult neurogenesis occurs in the two main areas of the brain of most mammalian species in; sub ventricular zone, and the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus. Many factors such as 17-β estradiol affect neurogenesis in the hippocampus. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of exogenous 17-β estradiol on neurogenesis in the ovariectomized (OVX) mice. Materials & Meth...
متن کاملA Review on 17-β estradiol a Potent Therapeutic Factor of Diabetic Cardiomyopathy
Type 2 diabetes causes structural and functional changes in the myocardium, which is called cardiomyopathy. Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a distinct primary disorder process, independent of coronary artery disease, which leads to heart failure in diabetic patients. Also, DCM is a multifaceted disorder that is one of the leading causes of death in elderly and postmenopausal women. Menopause i...

1 Women are exposed to estrogen in several forms such as oral contraceptive pills and 2 hormone replacement therapy. Although estrogen was believed to be cardioprotective, 3 lately, its beneficial effects are being questioned. Recent studies indicate that oxidative 4 stress in the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) may play a role in the development of 5 hypertension. Therefore, we hypothesiz...
متن کاملRole of LDL cholesterol and endolysosomes in amyloidogenesis and Alzheimer's disease.
The pathogenesis of late-onset sporadic Alzheimer's disease (AD) is believed to result from complex interactions between nutritional, environmental, epigenetic and genetic factors. Among those factors, altered circulating cholesterol homeostasis, independent of the APOE genotype, continues to be implicated in brain deposition of amyloid beta protein (Aβ) and the pathogenesis of AD. It is believ...
متن کاملModified LDL-mediated increases in endothelial layer permeability are attenuated with 17 beta-estradiol.
-Current research suggests that estrogen may have primary effects on the artery wall. To investigate the mechanisms of female sex hormone actions in the artery wall, we used an isolated, perfused, rat carotid artery model to examine the effects of estradiol on the rates of accumulation of normal (N-LDL) and minimally modified (MM-LDL) low density lipoprotein in ovariectomized rats. N-LDL, MM-LD...
