The role of ovarian hormone dynamics in metabolic phenotype and gene expression in female mice.

Abstract excerpt

Ovarian hormones, particularly estradiol, play an important role in the regulation of metabolic function including in food intake, thermogenesis, activity, fat distribution, and overall weight management. While it is known that weight and food intake follow cyclical patterns across the rodent estrous cycle, the majority of metabolic studies still focus on ovariectomized rodent models and estrogen replacement....
