Environmental impact of estrogens on human, animal and plant life: A critical review
Environment International, 2017 Background: Since the inception of global industrialization, steroidal estrogens have become an emerging and serious concern. Worldwide, steroid estrogens including estrone, estradiol and estriol, pose serious threats to soil, plants, water resources and

Estrogens and environmental estrogens
Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2002 The natural female sex hormone estrogens binds once inside the cell to a protein receptor to form a 'ligand-hormone receptor complex'. The binding activates the hormone receptor, which triggers specific cellular processes. The activated hormone receptor then turns on specific genes, causing cellular changes that lead to responses typical of a ligand ...

Tissue Specific Effects of Loss of Estrogen During Menopause and Aging
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2012 The roles of estrogens have been best studied in the breast, breast cancers and in the female reproductive tract. However, estrogens have important functions in almost every tissue in the body. Recent clinical trials such as the Women’s Health Initiative

The binding of estrogen and estrogen antagonists to the estrogen receptor
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1992 The model of the estrogen receptor as a dimer of identical, interacting subunits and data obtained by Sasson and Notides (1988, Mol. Endocrinol. 2, 307-312) were used to find the standard free energy changes that describe the binding of estradiol and 4-hydroxytamoxifen to the estrogen receptor.
