Comparison of the effects of aerobic and resistance training on cardiac autonomic adaptations in ovariectomized rats
2011, Autonomic Neuroscience: Basic and ClinicalCitation Excerpt :The causes of such impairment are still unknown, but it seems to involve adaptations at central sites in the cardiovascular control resulting from estrogen deficiency (Zhang and Kosaka, 2002; Rahimian et al., 2004). This effect is supported by identifying estrogen receptors within the nucleus of central nervous system (CNS) involved in the cardiac autonomic control (Pelletier et al., 1988; Simonian and Herbison, 1997). However, either blockade or activation of such receptors at specific sites seems to produce different responses in the cardiovascular autonomic control (Saleh and Connel, 2003; Saleh et al., 2005), which has impeded more specific studies until now.
Estrogen receptor α and β immunoreactive neurons in normal adult and aged female rat hippocampus: A qualitative and quantitative study
2005, Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :The 125I-Estrogen used by the latter investigators has been shown to have high affinity for both ERα and ERβ receptors [43]. In-situ hybridization studies have also demonstrated ER mRNA containing cells distributed in all subfields of hippocampus [33,42,45]. In our studies, maximum positive neurons were observed in the stratum pyramidale of CA3 irrespective of the ER subtype.
Comparative distribution of estrogen receptor α and β immunoreactivities in the forebrain and the midbrain of the female guinea pig
2004, Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :These effects are mediated by estrogen-concentrating neurons in very selective locations within the central nervous system. The distribution of these neurons in the brain of multiple species has been extensively investigated in earlier studies involving autoradiography with tritium-labeled estrogens [27,37–39,43–45], immunocytochemistry [1,2,6,8,9,29,47] or in situ hybridization [19,25,35]. Estrogen was thought to signal via a single nuclear estrogen receptor, now referred to as estrogen receptor α (ERα), until the discovery of a novel receptor now usually known as ERβ.
Effect of estradiol sulfamate (ES-J995) on affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen, cardiovascular function and acid-base balance in ovariectomized rats

2003, International Review of CytologyCitation Excerpt :Considerable evidence indicated that sex steroids influence many aspects of neuronal structure and function in the brain. Numerous studies have examined ER-containing neurons and the role of estrogen in such neuroa natomical areas as the midbrain, preoptic area, lateral septum, medial anterior and ventromedial nuclei of the hypothalamus, amygdala, limbic system, and hippocampus (Pfaff and Keiner, 1973; Stumpf et al., 1975; Pelletier et al., 1988; Simerly et al., 1990; McEwen, 1992; Dellovade et al., 1992; Li et al., 1993; X. Li et al., 1997; Delville and Blaustein, 1993; Lehman et al., 1993). These areas play a role in mediating reproductive and sexual behavior.
