Other steroid hormones,such as estrogen,are involved in not only sexual differentiation in the brain,but also numerous neuronal events including cell survival and synaptic plasticity.Furthermore,it is well known that estrogen plays a role in the pathophysiology of Parkinson's disease,Alzheimer's disease,and mental illness,while serving to regulate BDNF expression and/or function.Here,we present a broad overview of the current knowledge concerning the association between BDNF expression/function and steroid hormones(glucocorticoids and estrogen).展开更多

The age range of physiological event is between 48 - 55 years old. With regard to the role of genetics, nutrition and geographical conditions of the age of menopause in Iranian women is lower than and among 46 - 53 years. With the increase in life expectancy in recent decades, duration of menopause is increased and almost involved a third of the life of women so special issues of this era have had more attention. Since menopause is not the end of the life of a woman and keep her physical and mental health and problems resulting from the process of menopause such as urinary problems and incontinence will lead to improve the quality of life in this period. Many studies have tried to find a therapy for postmenopausal women with stress urinary incontinence using hormone. So this article seeks to examine the effect of conjugated estrogen in stress urinary incontinence of menopausal women with using the library method. The survey showed that by starting menopause, decreasing estrogen causes atrophy of mucosa of urogenital and the lining of the urethra and bladder, estrogen causes to maintain muscle tonicity. Also sacral nerves are also rich in estrogen receptors and by estrogen deficiency, elasticity of the urinary system decreases. Estrogen deficiency causes excitability of nerves and frequency of urine. So estrogen can increase the resistance of the urethra, bladder sensory threshold and sensitivity in Adorno in smooth muscles of the urethra and the rest of detrusor.展开更多

The results indicated that In the SCC tissue of the oral mucosa there were 5 cases of ER+ and PR- and 32 cases of both ER+ and PR+. Thirty-seven cases, the summation of the above two items, were considered as receptor(+),therefore the rate of the receptor(+) being 82.22%. ER+ and PR+ were cd related to the sex and age of patients, the neck lymph nodes' metastasizing or not and affected parts of the tumor, while they were related to the differentiation degree of the tumor. The rate of receptor(+) decreased with the decrease of the differentiation degree of the tumor. By X2 test a remarkable difference between grade Ⅰand grade Ⅲ of SCC of the oral mucosa was shown. It is suggested that SCC of the oral mucosa may probobly be hormone dependent tumor. The authors consider that the SCC detection for ER and PR could not only be one of the indices of biologic characteristics for that tumor but also as bases of anti-hormone treatment.展开更多
