G protein-coupled estrogen receptor 1 as a novel regulator of blood pressure

G protein-coupled estrogen receptor 1 as a novel regulator of blood pressure The mechanisms underlying hypertension are multi-faceted and incompletely understood. New evidence suggests that the G protein-coupled estrogen receptor 1 (GPER1) mediates protective actions within the cardiovascular and renal systems. This minireview focuses on recent advancements in our understanding of the vascular, renal, and cardiac GPER1-mediated mechanisms that influence blood pressure regulation. We emphasize clinical and basic evidence that suggests GPER1 as a novel target to aid therapeutic strategies for hypertension. Furthermore, we discuss current controversies and challenges facing GPER1-related research. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology The American Physiological Society

Abstract

The mechanisms underlying hypertension are multi-faceted and incompletely understood. New evidence suggests that the G protein-coupled estrogen receptor 1 (GPER1) mediates protective actions within the cardiovascular and renal systems. This minireview focuses on recent advancements in our understanding of the vascular, renal, and cardiac GPER1-mediated mechanisms that influence blood pressure regulation. We emphasize clinical and basic evidence that suggests GPER1 as a novel target to aid therapeutic strategies for hypertension. Furthermore, we discuss current controversies and challenges facing GPER1-related research.
