Estrogen receptor agonists for attenuation of neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration

Highlights • Estrogen receptor (ER) agonists play crucial roles in the immune system and the CNS. • Cell signaling pathways are modulated by ER agonists via binding to ERα and ERβ. • ER agonists can promote transcription of a large number of neuroprotective genes. • Neuroinflammation and neurodegene...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Estrogen receptor (ER) agonists play crucial roles in the immune system and the CNS. • Cell signaling pathways are modulated by ER agonists via binding to ERα and ERβ. • ER agonists can promote transcription of a large number of neuroprotective genes. • Neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration in the CNS are prevented by ER agonists. • ER agonists play significant roles in enhancing memory and cognition.
