📣 Out now in #Metabolism!
Our study reveals how hepatic estrogen receptor α helps coordinate the timing of maternal liver adaptations during pregnancy.

On #WorldMenopauseDay, let’s talk #liver health!
With menopause, #estrogen loss reshapes liver gene expression and contributes to #MASLD risk, while a diet enriched in #BCAA limits liver lipid deposition.

Women are more likely than men to develop dementia, and not just because they tend to live longer.
One reason may be menopause, the time in midlife when sex hormones drop and menstruation stops—and which some researchers are coming to see as a stress test for the brain.

Historically, medical research has relied heavily on male participants, with findings often generalized to women and children.
If women’s health is discussed at all, it’s largely framed around reproduction.
This special issue of Science highlights the research that is seeking to close the critical gaps in women’s health. Learn more: scim.ag/4hy8ACT

ALT Women make up more than half the population, but most of what we know about women’s biology comes from extrapolation of studies in men. This has been changing in recent years, and this special issue highlights some of the progress in understanding the biological basis of sex differences in health and disease and medical issues relevant to women’s health across different stages of life.

What happens to the female liver when estrogen levels decline? 🤔
