Influence of Estrogen on Skeletal Muscle Damage, Inflammation, and Repair

View Full Paper
PTPeter M. Tiidus

Key Points

  • This research aims to explore how estrogen affects inflammation and repair processes following skeletal muscle damage.
  • Examining the role of estrogen in muscle damage and repair mechanisms.
  • Analyzing the impact of estrogen on leukocyte infiltration, specifically neutrophils, after muscle injury.
  • Estrogen may reduce the early infiltration of neutrophils into damaged muscle.
  • This reduction suggests that estrogen could influence muscle repair processes in a beneficial way.

Abstract

TIIDUS, P. M. Influence of estrogen on skeletal muscle damage, inflammation, and repair. Exerc. Sport Sci. Rev., Vol. 31, No. 1, pp. 40–44, 2003. Estrogen may influence the disruption and diminish or delay leukocyte infiltration that occurs after muscle damage. This paper examines a mechanism by which estrogen may diminish the early postdamage migration of neutrophils into muscle and discusses the potential implications of these effects on muscle repair.
