概括
晚期更年期通过减少氧化压力来保持内皮功能. 这与更健康的脂质代谢物有关,这可能解释了更晚更年期的女性心血管风险较低.
科学领域:
- 心血管健康 心血管健康
- 内分泌学 在内分泌学.
- 代谢学 代谢学 代谢学
背景情况:
- 晚期更年期 (55岁以上) 与正常开始的更年期 (45-54岁) 相比,与心血管疾病 (CVD) 风险的降低有关.
- 晚期更年期对血管内皮功能障碍及其潜在机制的影响仍然不清楚.
研究的目的:
- 为了研究晚期更年期对内皮功能的影响.
- 确定机制,特别是线粒体反应性氧物种 (mitoROS),将更年期的年龄与内皮功能联系起来.
主要方法:
- 在晚期开始的绝经后妇女 (PMW),正常开始的PMW和绝经前妇女中测量了内皮功能 (流介导扩张[FMDBA).
- 评估了与mitROS相关的内皮功能障碍 (ΔFMDBA,MTQ) 和血清对人类大动脉内皮细胞的影响.
- 利用代谢学来识别影响内皮细胞mitoROS生物活性的循环因素.
主要成果:
- 与正常发病的PMW相比,晚期发病的PMW表现出明显更高的FMDBA (>50%) 和较低的米托罗斯相关功能障碍.
- 来自正常发作的PMW的血清,但不是晚期发作的PMW,在内皮细胞中增加了米托罗斯生物活性.
- 脂质代谢物,特别是三甘衍生的代谢物,如TG{16:0},有显著差异,与米托ROS生物活性相关.
结论:
- 晚期更年期与内皮功能的保存有关,这是由于较低的线粒激素的氧化应激减少.
- 良好的循环脂质特征,特别是甘油三,有助于在晚期发病的PMW中降低内皮细胞线粒ROS.
- 这些发现阐明了在经历过晚期绝经的女性中降低心血管疾病风险的机制.

Menopause
129
Menopause, a natural biological process marking the end of a woman's fertility, typically occurs between the fifth and sixth decade of life. This phase is characterized by the exhaustion of the ovarian follicle pool, leading to less responsive ovaries despite the high levels of Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing Hormone (LH). The consequential decrease in estrogen production results in symptoms like hot flashes, heavy sweating, headaches, hair loss, muscle pains, vaginal...

Regulation of Angiogenesis and Blood Supply
2.5K
Rapidly dividing tumors, embryos, and wounded tissues require more oxygen than usual, lowering the oxygen concentration in the blood. At low oxygen or hypoxic conditions, an oxygen-sensitive transcription factor called the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 or HIF1 is activated. HIF1 is a dimeric protein of alpha (ɑ) and beta (β) subunits. Under optimal oxygen conditions, HIF1β is present in the nucleus while HIF1ɑ remains in the cytosol. HIF1ɑ is hydroxylated by prolyl...

Bone Disorders
3.4K
Aging and its effect on bone remodeling is the most common cause of bone disorders. In young and healthy people, bone deposition and resorption happen at an equal rate to maintain optimal bone health.
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...
