The effect of estrogen stimulation in vitro on the electrical properties of vascular smooth muscle (VSM), and the concentration of estrogen receptors in VSM were measured in isolated coronary arteries. Microelectrode measurements of the dog coronary artery membrane potential (Em) showed quiescent va

## Abstract 17Ξ²βEstradiol (E2) is well known to interact with intracellular receptors that act as nuclear transcription factors. However, abundant evidence now indicates that E2 can also rapidly induce several nongenomic effects through signaling pathways related to cell growth, preservation, and d
Some studies suggest that estrogen acts on bone by decreasing the production of interleukin-6 (IL-6), a cytokine that increases bone resorption, by osteoblasts or bone marrow cells. However, other studies have not confirmed this, possibly because of a low and variable number of estrogen receptors (E
