lüll A new approach to understanding the molecular mechanisms through which estrogens affect cognition Frick KM; Fernandez SM; Harburger LLBiochim Biophys Acta 2010[Oct]; 1800 (10): 1045-55Traditional approaches to the study of hormones and cognition have been primarily observational or correlational in nature. Because this work does not permit causal relationships to be identified, very little is known about the specific molecules and cellular events through which hormones affect cognitive function. In this review, we propose a new approach to study hormones and memory, where the systematic blocking of cellular events can reveal which such events are necessary for hormones to influence memory consolidation. The discussion will focus on the modulation of the hippocampus and hippocampal memory by estrogens, given the extensive literature on this subject, and will illustrate how the application of this approach is beginning to reveal important new information about the molecular mechanisms through which estrogens modulate memory consolidation. The clinical relevance of this work will also be discussed.|Animals[MESH]|Cognition/*physiology[MESH]|Estrogens/*metabolism[MESH]|Hippocampus/*metabolism[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Memory/*physiology[MESH] |
