Biological factors may also contribute, as hormones, particularly estrogen in women, have been shown to exert a protective effect against IS by dilating blood vessels, improving blood flow and induction of anti-inflammatory factors thus reducing the risk of atherosclerosis [34, 35]. Furthermore, ...

“Hormones such as testosterone can cause a high libido,” Philips says. “People who engage in sex often most likely have higher testosterone levels.” Pregnancy During pregnancy, estrogen increases, which may lead to a higher sex drive. With pregnancy, women and AFAB folks may also experience...
While, T47D cell is an estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) positive moderately aggressive breast cancer cell line, MDA-MB-231 cell belongs to the triple negative breast cancer subtype with very aggressive cancer metastatic properties. Both these cell lines used extensively in cancer research ...
Another reason for lower HSI-related burdens in females is that they seem to be more efficient at maintaining Na+ homeostasis during acclimatization to dietary Na+ challenges, thereby reducing their vulnerability to the adverse effects of HSI exposure [30]. Premenopausal estrogen levels in females ...
In the analysis, we also found that for age groups before (and including) 70–74, the projected CMRs of the females showed a slight upward trend (but no statistical significance). Published study has confirmed that female hormones, estrogen replacement therapy, and oral contraceptives are associa...

2020, 21, 2840 2 of 14 consist of endometrial stromal cells, endometrial epithelial cells, and extracellular matrix; these cells maintain their receptivity to estrogen undergoing cyclic proliferation and breakdown similarly to the eutopic endometrium. The tissue outbreaks, leading to inflammatory, ...
There are three major subtypes of breast cancer, depending on the presence or absence of molecular markers for progesterone or estrogen receptors, and human epidermal growth factor 2 (ERBB2). Statistically, 70% of cancer patients show hormone-receptor-positive/ERBB2-negative phenotype, while 15% ...
The amount of visceral fat is directly linked to the severity of liver inflammation and fibrosis in NAFLD [10,12]. Human and animal studies indicate that NAFLD is strongly associated with VAT inflammation and elevated circulating inflammatory factors such as inflammatory adipokines and lipids [13–...
