Estrogenic terpenes and terpenoids: Pathways, functions and applications.

TLDR
Applications of estrogenic terpenes and terpenoids are categorized into cancer treatment and prevention, cardioprotection, endocrine toxicity/reproductive dysfunction, food/supplement/traditional medicine, immunology/inflammation, menopausal syndromes and neuroprotection, where their benefits are discussed based on their availability, stability and variations.

Metabolism and health effects of phyto-estrogens.

TL;DR: The evidence for and against the purported health benefits and adverse effects of phyto-estrogens are weighed and the structure similar to human female hormone 17-β oestradiol is considered.

Overlapping molecular pathways between cannabinoid receptors type 1 and 2 and estrogens/androgens on the periphery and their involvement in the pathogenesis of common diseases (Review).

TL;DR: This is the first systematic review of molecular pathways that are influenced by both the cannabinoids and sex hormones, including adenylate cyclase and protein kinase A, epidermal growth factor receptor, cyclic adenosine monophosphate response element-binding protein, vascular endothelial growth factor, proto-oncogene serine/threonine-protein kinase and extracellular-signal-regulated kinases 1/2.

Nuclear Factor-κB Regulates Estrogen Receptor-α Transcription in the Human Heart

TL;DR: In conclusion, inflammatory stimuli suppress hERα expression via activation and subsequent binding of NF-κB to the ERα F-promoter, and 17β-estradiol/hERα may antagonize the inhibitory effect of NF, which suggests interplay between estrogen/estrogen receptors and the pro-hypertrophic and inflammatory responses to NF-σκB.

Human myeloblastic leukemia cells (HL-60) express a membrane receptor for estrogen that signals and modulates retinoic acid-induced cell differentiation.

TL;DR: There is thus a membrane localized estrogen receptor in HL-60 myeloblastic leukemia cells that can cause ERK activation and modulates the response of these cells to retinoic acid, indicating crosstalk between the membrane estrogen and retinosic acid evoked pathways relevant to propulsion of cell differentiation.
