Reductions in circulating estrogens can contribute to cognitive decline, in part by impairing mitochondrial function within the hippocampal region. The entorhinal cortex provides the hippocampus with its main cortical input and, to assess the impact of estrogen deficiency on mitochondrial respiration and synaptic proteins in the entorhinal cortex, wildtyp ...
