Activation of a novel estrogen receptor, GPER, is cardioprotective in male and female rats.

26 Aug 2009 Premenopausal females have a lower incidence of cardiovascular disease than their male counterparts, but the mechanism is unclear. Estrogen has been thought to signal through two nuclear receptors: estrogen receptor-alpha or estrogen receptor-beta; ... Read more...

The salicylic acid-induced protection of non-climacteric unripe pepper fruit against Colletotrichum gloeosporioides is similar to the resistance of ripe fruit.

20 Aug 2009 The anthracnose fungus Colletotrichum gloeosporioides deleteriously affects unripe pepper fruit, but not ripe fruit. Here, we show that the induction of local acquired resistance (LAR) by salicylic acid (SA), 2,6-dichloroisonicotinic acid, or ... Read more...

Beneficial role of the GPR30 agonist G-1 in an animal model of multiple sclerosis.

4 Aug 2009 The beneficial effects of estrogens in multiple sclerosis are thought to be mediated exclusively by the classical nuclear estrogen receptors ERalpha and ERbeta. However, recently many reports revealed that estrogens are able to mediate rapid signals ... Read more...
