Structural characterization of the binding interactions of various endogenous estrogen metabolites with human estrogen receptor α and β subtypes: a molecular modeling study. [PDF]
In the present study, we used the molecular docking approach to study the binding interactions of various derivatives of 17β-estradiol (E2) with human estrogen receptor (ER) α and β. First, we determined the suitability of the molecular docking method to

Design and Synthesis of Two Bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-steroid Derivatives
This study describes the preparation of two bicyclo[3.3.3]nonane-steroid derivatives from either estradiol or estrone using some reactions such as etherification, addition, nucleophilic substitution and cyclization.

LCAT facilitates transacylation of 17β-estradiol in the presence of HDL3 subfraction
It has been shown that estrogens need to be metabolized to their hydrophobic estrogen ester derivatives to act as antioxidants in lipoproteins. Data suggest that 17β-estradiol (E2) becomes esterified in LCAT-induced reactions and the esters are ...

Flutamide versus a cyproterone acetate-ethinyl estradiol combination in moderate acne: a pilot randomized clinical trial [PDF]
Background: The use of oral flutamide is rarely investigated in acne therapy. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of oral flutamide with that of a cyproterone-estradiol combination in treating acne lesions.

Detectability of testosterone esters and estradiol benzoate in bovine hair and plasma following pour-on treatment [PDF]
The abuse of synthetic esters of natural steroids such as testosterone and estradiol in cattle fattening and sports is hard to detect via routine urine testing. The esters are rapidly hydrolysed in vivo into substances which are also endogenously present
