Several studies support an association between gonadal hormones and oxidative state.

Thus, it is important to determine the process by which inflammation influences metabolism of gonadal hormones.

This review discusses the role that gonadal hormones play in these sexually dimorphic patterns of behavioral responses to cocaine.

Hypothesized mechanisms include effects of diet modification on gonadal hormones, retinoid-like activities of carotenoids, and other protective effects of biologically active dietary constituents.

Introduction: This study aimed to determine if endogenous gonadal hormones affect the intracellular mechanisms in the spinal cord that control inflammatory pain responses.

The emerging picture suggests that the biological basis of these differences resides in the regulatory activity of gonadal hormones in the central nervous system.

As such, it can be concluded that the presence of female gonadal hormones may influence behavioural outcomes after MTBI, though mechanisms involved are unclear.

Moreover, these results suggest that other stressors and neural functions should be investigated to determine whether age, sex and gonadal hormones also have an impact.

This review will summarize current knowledge of sex differences in metabolic effects of the RAS, focusing on interactions with gonadal hormones and potential clinical implications.
