Estrogen functions as a longevity promoter: Estrogen, a female steroid hormone, may increase insulin sensitivity, slow down cardiac aging, and increase lifespan, via up-regulation of BubR1 and others genes, 10/August/2018, 10.27 am
I do more than what I intended for: Estrogen comes to the rescue of blood sugar disease: Estrogen, a female sex steroid hormone, increases the expression of IGF1R, INSR, and IRS2, and promotes an insulin-sensitized state, via up-regulation of its target gene Lin28, 10/August/2018, 9.59 am

Assigning an unknown function to a known female reproductive hormone Estrogen in Longevity: Estrogen-based therapy for aging-associated diseases and Lifespan extension: Estrogen, a female steroid hormone, increases NMN/NAD levels, decreases interaction of DBC1 with PARP1, increases PARP1 activity, promotes DNA repair, augments tolerance against radiation, cancer, and aging, via down-regulation of its target gene, 10/August/2018, 10.41 am
August 10, 2018What they say: Introduction:
A recent study from the Department of Genetics, Paul F. Glenn Laboratories for the Biological Mechanisms of Aging Harvard Medical School, Boston, USA; and Department of Pharmacology, School of Medicine, The University of New South Wales, Australia shows that Sirtuin-2 induces the checkpoint kinase BubR1 to increase lifespan. This study was published, in the 1 July 2014 issue of the journal “EMBO”, by Prof Sinclair, North BJ, and others.
What we say:
On the foundation of this interesting finding, Dr L Boominathan PhD, Director-cum-chief Scientist of GBMD, reports that: Estrogen functions as a longevity promoter: Estrogen, a female steroid hormone, may increase insulin sensitivity, slow down cardiac aging, and increase lifespan, via up-regulation of BubR1 and others genes
From research findings to Therapeutic Opportunity:
This study suggests, for the first time, that Estrogen, by increasing the expression of its target gene, may: (a) increase the expression of BuBR1 (BUB1 Mitotic Checkpoint Serine/Threonine Kinase); (b) decrease the expression of p70 S6 Kinase; and (c) regulate the expression of a number of longevity-promoting molecules (fig. 1).
Figure 1. Estrogen functions as a longevity promoter. Astragalus polysaccharide may extend mammalian lifespan via up-regulation of BuBR1; and down-regulation of p70 S6 Kinase
Figure 2. The chemical structure of Estrogen. Estrogen functions as a longevity-promoter through induction of BuBR1.
Thereby, it may: (1) increase insulin sensitivity; (2) attenuate cognitive impairment; (3) delay diseases of aging; (4) slow down cardiac aging; (5) promote resistance to bone, immune and motor dysfunction; (6) promote tissue rejuvenation; and (7) prolong median lifespan. Thus, estrogen or its analogs, either alone or in combination with other drugs,“ may be used to extend the lifespan of an individual (fig.2). Finally, this study provides mechanistic insights into, yet another reason as to, why women outlive men.
