Estrogen Receptor beta (ERβ) Regulation of Lipid Homeostasis-Does Sex Matter?

Published in: Metabolites (2020)
In this communication, we aim to summarize the role of estrogen receptor beta (ERβ) in lipid metabolism in the main metabolic organs with a special focus on sex differences. The action of ERβ is tissue-specific and acts in a sex-dependent manner, emphasizing the necessity of developing sex- and tissue-selective targeting drugs in the future.
