These along with enhancement of other well-known metabolic and bone mass maintenance effects of estrogen can have profound influence on the health and functional abilities of postmenopausal females. Experimental evidence for these effects derived from animal and human models is discussed. In addition, ...

Sex hormones may be one of the explanations. However, the relationships between sex hormones and physical function remain unclear in the elderly females. This study was designed to explore these relationships among the Chinese oldest-old and centenarian women. Methods Data from 1226 women were ...
Estrogen is also responsible for the development of sexual characteristics in females such as breast enlargement and widening of the hips. They also release the hormone progesterone in order to prepare the uterus lining for a possible pregnancy....
Estrogen receptor beta (ESR2) polymorphisms in interaction with estrogen receptor alpha (ESR1) and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF1) variants influence t... In this large population-based cohort study, variants in ESR2 were associated with increased risk of vertebral and incident fragility fract...
These hormones (FSH and LH) also trigger an increase in the production of the female hormone estrogen. Asestrogen levelsrise, like a switch, it turns off the production of follicle-stimulating hormone. This careful balance of hormones allows the body to limit the number of follicles that mature...
Following ovulation, the follicular cells that remain in the ovary become the corpus luteum. The cells of the corpus luteum secrete steroid hormones (progesterone and estrogen). If fertilization and implantation are not successful, the corpus luteum begins to degenerate within ten days of being ...
Some recent reports show a high rate of infertility also in men with 21-OHD. They are at risk of benign testicular tumors, adrenal rests, which can lead to permanent infertility. Also, raised adrenal androgen production leading to increased estrogen concentrations can suppress gonadotropin ...
Estrogen participates in the modulation of insulin sensitivity, energy balance, and body composition as estrogen regulates the activity and expression of the key enzymes involved in glucose transport, glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, Conclusions The CRS consists of a constellation of metabolic, ...
Sex hormones are presumed to contribute to sexual dimorphism in the immune system. Estrogen, in particular, has been suggested to predispose women to syste... MS Bynoe,CM Grimaldi,B Diamond - 《Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America》 被引量: 792发表...
