Estrogen levels in stomach tissues increase as the blood triglyceride levels rise, and blood triglyceride level-dependent increases of blood estrogen levels are cancelled in gastrectomized rats. We therefore propose that in males, parietal cells in the stomach act as a sensor for the blood ...
responsible for the changes in breasts during adolescence and pregnancy including the development of milk ducts for lactation, and for the growth of the uterine lining in the first part of the menstrual cycle. It also serves to regulate several metabolic processes including cholesterol levels and ...
Although menopausal hormone therapies containing estrogens can alleviate symptoms, concerns about the risks involved have contributed to a broad decline in the use of these approaches. Non-hormonal therapies have emerged that target tissues or pathways with varying levels of selectivity, reducing risk. ...
Role of estrogen receptor beta in estrogen action. What remains true today is that in young adults androgen levels are higher in males and estrogen levels higher in females. More recently we have learned... K Pettersson,JA Gustafsson - 《Annual Review of Physiology》 被引量: 918发表: 2001年...
The presence of estrogens in males near puberty explains why some pubertal males exhibit slight growth of the mammary glands (gynecomastia). In this condition, a small (1 to 2 cm in diameter) lump appears behind the nipple, but it usually goes away in about 2 years. Thus, levels of both...
levels 1 hour before drinking cow's milk were measured and used as a baseline, but there was no group which did not drink milk as a control to eliminate the effects of drinking 1 litre of liquid in 10 minutes. The level of estrogen and other hormones in the urine and serum of the ...
SLE.This difference in estradiol levels was not found in males, though it should be noted that there are not as many large studies on SLE in men. This implies that there is a higher-than-normal conversion of testosterone to estrogen. Plus, it might amplify estrogen’s effect in the body...
Menopause is associated with a marked decrease in ovarian estrogen production which results in low serum estradiol concentrations and vasomotor symptoms (hot flashes) in the majority of females. This combination medication works by boosting hormone levels and relieves some of the symptoms of menopause....
The membrane estrogen receptor GPER (also known as GPR30), is expressed at intermediate levels in SAT. Estrogen, which is the natural ligand of both GPER and nuclear estrogen receptors, has no effect on adiponectin release (Babaei et al., 2010) and it is reported to have either stimulatory...
In summary, many animal experiments have shown that most estrogen-metabolizing enzymes show tissue- and sex-specific differences in their expression. Moreover, these metabolic enzymes may respond differently to changes in estrogen levels in women, potentially inducing diseases. These findings are consiste...
