Estrogen steals oxygen from mitochondria, shifting patterns of growth and adaptation 1 0 2Estrogen's stimulation of non-mitochondrial oxygen consumption with the production of lactic acid stimulates blood vessel formation 1 0 2The electron transfer process of the mitochondria is interrupted by the futile redox cycling catalyzed by estrogens 1 0 2Estrogen increases and acts through the inflammatory mediators, serotonin and histamine, to increase vascular leakiness 1 0 2Estrogen affects our energetics and structure, and how those processes relate to aging, atrophy, cancerization, etc 1 0 2Cells of the immune system release tumor necrosis factor and other inflammatory cytokines, and the bowel becomes more permeable, allowing endotoxin and even bacteria to enter the blood 1 0 2Increased estrogen, nitric oxide, excitatory amino acids, cortisol, lactate, free unsaturated fatty acids, prolactin, growth hormone, histamine, serotonin, tumor necrosis factor and other pro-inflammatory cytokines and kinins, and a variety of prostaglandins and eicosanoids have been identified as anti-mitochondrial, anti-respiratory agents 1 0 2Endotoxemia may be a factor in nerve degeneration only during adult life, but it is sometimes present during pregnancy 1 0 2Endotoxin poisoning eventually tends to intervene during stress and aging, exacerbating the trend begun under the influence of other factors 1 0 2Lipid peroxidation damages the mitochondrias' ability to produce pregnenolone 1 0 2
