The cardioprotective nature of oestrogen is perceivable through increased cardiovascular disease incidence rates in women post-menopause. One of oestrogen��셲 protective mechanisms is inducing vasodilation through non-genomic, rapid signalling to increase nitric oxide (NO) production. Genomic upregulation of this pathway is facilitated by oestrogen-responsive genes. This study proposes a novel pathway of oestrogen-induced vasodilation and the influence of ageing and oestrogen status. A scoping review examined literature on oestrogen within the vascular system to find potential interactants and the impacts of ageing and oestrogen status upon these. The results indicate 8 new proteins interact with endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), producing NO and stimulating vasodilation. Ageing and oestrogen deficiency downregulate, seen in women post-menopause, cause a decrease in overall vasodilation which decreases vascular health. Distinct ER gene polymorphisms were observed associated with cardiovascular pathological phenotypes. Increased methylation of ER慣 and 棺 CpG sites were detected in atherosclerotic tissues. These results and further advancements have potential impacts through identification of pharmacological targets, prevention of cardiovascular disease using oestrogen��셲 cardioprotective pathways and mechanisms, epigenetic modification, and personalised medicine to reduce cardiovascular disease incidence.
