This volume focuses on topics ranging from the impact of
endogenous and exogenous estrogens on human development and cancer
risk, to novel aspects in mechanisms of estrogen action, to
estrogen implication in human malignancies (breast, prostate,
liver), to the emerging role of estrogen in neurodegenerative
disorders (Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's
disease), to estrogen action in the cardiovascular system
(including both genomic and nongenomic), to estrogen effects on
cells of the immune system and their relevance to immune response
and autoimmune diseases. The resulting inferences for clinics,
diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment are also presented and
extensively discussed.
