Effects of estrogen, an ERα agonist and raloxifene on pressure overload induced cardiac hypertrophy.

Effects of estrogen, an ERα agonist and raloxifene on pressure overload induced cardiac hypertrophy.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of 17β-estradiol (E2), the selective ERα agonist 16α-LE2, and the selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) raloxifene on remodeling processes during the development of myocardial hypertrophy (MH) in a mouse model of pressure overload.
