Differential modulation of estrogen receptors (ERs) in ischemic brain injury: a role for ERalpha in estradiol-mediated protection against delayed cell death

Abstract

Estradiol enhances plasticity and survival of the injured brain. Our previous work demonstrates that physiological levels of estradiol protect against cerebral ischemia in the young and aging brain through actions involving estrogen receptors (ERs) and alterations in gene expression. The major goal of this study was to establish mechanisms of neuroprotective actions induced by low levels of estradiol. We first examined effects of estradiol on the time-dependent evolution of ischemic brain injury. Because estradiol is known to influence apoptosis, we hypothesized that it acts to decrease the delayed phase of cell death observed after middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). Furthermore, because ERs are pivotal to neuroprotection, we examined the temporal expression profiles of both ER subtypes, ERalpha and ERbeta, after MCAO and delineated potential roles for each receptor in estradiol-mediated neuroprotection. We quantified cell death in brains at various times after MCAO and analyzed ER expression by RT-PCR, in situ hybridization, and immunohistochemistry. We found that during the first 24 h, the mechanisms of estradiol-induced neuroprotection after MCAO are limited to attenuation of delayed cell death and do not influence imm...Continue Reading

Brain Ischemia

Brain ischemia is a condition in which there is insufficient blood flow to the brain to meet metabolic demand. Discover the latest research on brain ischemia here.

Brain Injury & Trauma

brain injury after impact to the head is due to both immediate mechanical effects and delayed responses of neural tissues.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
