“…In a model of inflammation in rats it has been demonstrated ERβ down regulates the P2X3 receptor in the periphery, producing anti-inflammatory effects [166]. Following ovariectomy in rodents a significant increase in blood brain barrier permeability is observed, which is normalized by a combined E2/estriol treatment [167].…”

The Role of Estrogen in Brain and Cognitive Aging

There are 3 common physiological estrogens, of which estradiol (E2) is seen to decline rapidly over the menopausal transition. This decline in E2 has been associated with a number of changes in the brain, including cognitive changes, effects on sleep, and effects on mood. These effects have been demonstrated in both rodent and non-human preclinical models. Furthermore, E2 interactions have been indicated in a number of neuropsychiatric disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia, and depression. In normal brain aging, there are a number of systems that undergo changes and a number of these show interactions with E2, particularly the cholinergic system, the dopaminergic system, and mitochondrial function. E2 treatment has been shown to ameliorate some of the behavioral and morphological changes seen in preclinical models of menopause; however, in clinical populations, the effects of E2 treatment on cognitive changes after menopause are mixed. The future use of sex hormone treatment will likely focus on personalized or precision medicine for the prevention or treatment of cognitive disturbances during aging, with a better understanding of who may benefit from such treatment.

“…This observation directed us to focus on the P2Y2/P2Y4 signaling cascade as a potential contributor to sex-related physiological differences in renal salt handling. This is particularly relevant to evidence demonstrating that sex hormones regulate extrarenal purinoceptor signaling [31][32][33][34].…”

Background: Premenopausal women have a lower risk of hypertension compared to age-matched men and postmenopausal women. P2Y 2 and P2Y 4 purinoceptor can be considered potential contributors to hypertension due to their emerging roles in regulating renal tubular Na + transport. Activation of these receptors inhibits epithelial Na + channel activity (ENaC) via a phospholipase C (PLC)-dependent pathway resulting in natriuresis. We recently reported that activation of P2Y 2 and P2Y 4 receptors in the renal medulla by UTP promotes natriuresis in male and ovariectomized (OVX) rats, but not in ovary-intact females. This led us to hypothesize that ovary-intact females have greater basal renal medullary activity of P2 (P2Y 2 and P2Y 4 ) receptors regulating Na + excretion compared to male and OVX rats. Methods: To test our hypothesis, we determined (i) the effect of inhibiting medullary P2 receptors by suramin (750 μg/kg/min) on urinary Na + excretion in anesthetized male, ovary-intact female and OVX Sprague Dawley rats, (ii) mRNA expression and protein abundance of P2Y 2 and P2Y 4 receptors and (iii) mRNA expression of their downstream effectors (PLC-1d and ENaCa) in renal inner medullary tissues obtained from these three groups. We also subjectedcultured mouse inner medullary collecting duct cells (segment 3, mIMCD3) to different concentrations of 17ß-estradiol(E 2 , 0, 10, 100 and 1000 nM) to test whether E 2 increases mRNA expression of P2Y 2 and P2Y 4 receptors. Results: Acute P2 inhibition attenuated urinary Na + excretion in ovary-intact females, but not in male or OVX rats.We found that P2Y 2 and P2Y 4 mRNA expression was higher in the inner medulla from females compared to males or OVX. Inner medullary lysates showed that ovary-intact females have higher P2Y 2 receptor protein abundance, compared to males, however, OVX did not eliminate this sex difference. We also found that E 2 dose-dependently upregulated P2Y 2 and P2Y 4 mRNA expression in mIMCD3. Conclusion: These data suggest that females have enhanced P2Y 2 and P2Y 4 -dependent regulation of Na + handling in the renal medulla, compared to male and OVX rats. We speculate that the P2 pathway contributes to facilitated renal Na + handling in premenopausal females.
