The gonadal steroid hormone, estrogen, can diminish the degree of striatal dopamine depletion resulting from methamphetamine. In this article, we describe the conditions of this estrogen neuroprotection as well as the potential for estrogen and…

The gonadal steroid hormone estrogen (E) may play an important role in sex differences in methamphetamine (MA)-induced neurotoxicity of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic (NSDA) system because E can serve as a neuroprotectant in female, but not male,…

In Part 1 of this report, we review data on the effects of estrogen (E), the anti-E tamoxifen (TMX), and testosterone (T) on methamphetamine (METH)-induced neurotoxicity in female and male CD-1 mice. Treatment of gonadectomized females with a…
