Abstract
The estrogen receptors ERalpha and ERbeta are the main mediators of estrogen action and estrogens play an important role in a variety of aspects of physiology besides their well acknowledged function in reproduction. In vivo and in vitro studies indicate that the estrogen receptors are mechanistically implicated in endocrine-related diseases. Recent studies with estrogen receptor knockout mice have helped to unravel the role of the estrogen receptors in brain degeneration, osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases and obesity.
