  •  
    One of the rare long-term studies of Testosterone in women.  This study was a respective study of high dose Testosterone.  The authors found an increase in atherosclerosis in the aorta versus non-HRT.

  •  
    Testosterone therapy in post menopausal women appears to have adverse cardiovascular effects in women.  The negative effects were an increase in Pulsatility index and adverse change in lipid profiles.  This seemed to counter the positive effects by estrogen.  Others have proposed that combination E2 and T therapy hide the negative effects of testosterone on CV health in women.

Testosterone, SHBG and cardiovascular health in postmenopausal women - 0 views

  •  
    Master's thesis reviews Testosterone therapy in women.  The evidence is poor.  What is seen is that low SHBG and increasing Testosterone in the long term appears to be associated with adverse CV effects. Otherwise, the effects of Testosterone are negligible if negative at all.   High dose studies did find increased CVD in women. The dosing here was at 40 mg.

    review of the literature finds that Testosterone therapy in women with low libido improves sexual activity without CVD and breast cancer risk in postmenopausal women.  Post menopause is a time associated with an increased risk of CVD in women.

    Study finds that Testosterone therapy improves insulin sensitivity, muscle strength and function in women with advanced CHF.  No levels were noted.  If this is similar to men, I would expect a low Testosterone, which Testosterone replacement would then increase physiologic performance.

  •  
    This study looked at post menopause women and found that those with PCOS had an increase in CAD and worse cardiovascular event survival.  PCOS is a metabolic syndrome, in part, driven by elevated androgens in women.

The molecular basis of neurodegeneration in multiple sclerosis - 0 views

  • Inflammation is the most predominant feature during the early (relaping) phases of the disease and declines with aging of the patients and disease duration
  • anti-inflammatory or immunomodulatory treatments are effective in the relapsing stage, but the benefit is lost when the patients have entered the progressive phase
  • in the process of oligodendrocyte destruction and demyelination in MS lesions iron is liberated from its intracellular ferritin bound stores into the extracellular space, where it is taken up by microglia and macrophages and again stored together with ferritin. When this happens in MS lesions in an environment, where free radicals are produced by oxidative burst, iron can be liberated from ferritin and transformed into reactive Fe++[114], which reacts with hydrogen peroxide to generate highly reactive hydroxyl radicals [36] and thus amplifies oxidative damage and associated cellular injury
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • Inflammation will remain a key target, since the data suggest that microglia activation and oxidative burst is driven by inflammation throughout all stages of the disease.
  •  
    Very nice review of the neurodegenerative process in MS.

  •  
    Estriol found to be beneficial in experimental model of MS called EAE.  The effect would be through E3's preferential binding to ERbeta.  This study finds benefit in men and women.

  •  
    Progesterone has a neuroprotective and promyelinating effects in the nervous system.  Progesterone increases BDNF.  Progesterone increases proliferation and differentiation of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells which will increase myelin production.
