- Title
17α-Estradiol: A Novel Therapeutic Intervention to Target Age-related Chronic Inflammation.
- Authors
Gonzalez-Freire, Marta; Diaz-Ruiz, Alberto; de Cabo, Rafael
- Abstract
The authors reflect on the "17α-Estradiol alleviates age-related metabolic and inflammatory dysfunction in male mice without inducing feminization," by M. B. Stout and colleagues. They mention that the study demonstrated the mitigation of age-associated inflammatory and metabolic disfunctions with 17-alpha estradiol (17α-E2). They state that identification of cellular and molecular mechanisms of 17α-E2 is needed to develop interventions in delaying the aging process.
