Estrogen Deprivation and Myocardial Infarction: Role of Aerobic Exercise Training, Inflammation and Metabolomics.

Estrogen Deprivation and Myocardial Infarction: Role of Aerobic Exercise Training, Inflammation and Metabolomics. Curr Cardiol Rev. 2019 Jul 29;: Authors: Ruberti OM, Rodrigues B Abstract BACKGROUND: In general, postmenopausal women present higher mortality, and worse prognosis after myocardial infarction compared to men, due to estrogen deficiency. After MI, cardiovascular alterations occur, such as the autonomic imbalance and the pro-inflammatory cytokines increase. In this sense, therapies that aim to minimize deleterious effects caused by ischemia are important. Aerobic training has been proposed as a promising intervention in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases. On the other hand, some studies have attempted to identify potential biomarkers for cardiovascular deseases or specifically for myocardial infarction. For this purpose, metabolomics has been used as a tool in the discovery of cardiovascular biomarkers. OBJECTIVE: Therefore, the objective of this work is to discuss the changes involved in ovariectomy, myocardial infarction, and aerobic training, with emphasis on inflammation and metabolism.
