Converting lignin into long‐chain fatty acids with the electro‐Fenton reaction

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 13, Issue 8, Page 1290-1302, August 2021., 2021
A new technology via the three‐phase three‐dimensional electro‐Fenton reaction was employed for the first time to convert lignin or its derived aromatics. The yields of palmitic acid and octadecanoic acid from lignin reached 138.41 and 112.31 mg/g, respectively.

Radioimmunoassay of 2-hydroxyestrone in urine

open access: yesClinical Chemistry, 1994
Abstract Catechol estrogens such as 2-OH estrone are interesting estrogen metabolites formed in several human tissues and excreted in urine. We developed and thoroughly validated a radioimmunoassay for urinary 2-OH estrone that has several advantages over published RIAs.

Estrogen metabolite ratio: Is the 2-hydroxyestrone to 16α-hydroxyestrone ratio predictive for breast cancer?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Women's Health, 2011
Experimental studies have shown that two main estrogen metabolites hydroxylated by CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 in the breast differentially affect breast cell proliferation and carcinogenesis. Although 16α-hydroxyestrone (16αOHE1) exerts estrogenic activity through covalent estrogen receptor (ER) binding, 2-hydroxyestrone (2OHE1) presumably has antiestrogenic ...

Tissue-selective effects of continuous release of 2-hydroxyestrone and 16alpha-hydroxyestrone on bone, uterus and mammary gland in ovariectomized growing rats [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Endocrinology, 2001
2-Hydroxyestrone (2-OHE(1)) and 16alpha-hydroxyestrone (16alpha-OHE(1)) have been reported to be risk factors for negative bone balance and breast cancer, respectively. The roles of these two metabolites of estrone as estrogen agonists or antagonists with respect to estrogen target tissues, or both, are poorly defined.

Cytochrome P450 1A1 influences obesity‐induced pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 9, Page 1824-1844, May 2026.
Background and Purpose The contribution of obesity to pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) pathophysiology remains poorly understood. Adipose tissue synthesises estrogens via cytochrome P450 (CYP) 19A1 (aromatase), whereas circulating estrogens are metabolised in the lung by CYP1A1.

Endogenous oestrogens as neuroprotective modulators in the human retina: Evidence from transcriptomic profiling and aromatase inhibition

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 38, Issue 4, April 2026.
Single‐cell transcriptomics reveals that the human retina expresses a broad repertoire of steroid hormone biosynthesis and estrogen signalling genes. Functional validation in retinal explants shows that local estrogen synthesis is neuroprotective, preventing photoreceptor death and limiting microglial activation. Abstract Steroid hormones, particularly

Resolution of inflammation in pulmonary arterial hypertension, the influence of sex—An IUPHAR immunopharmacology committee review

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 182, Issue 23, Page 5706-5733, December 2025.
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive and life‐threatening disease with limited treatment options. Sex differences are apparent in PAH, specifically in the pathophysiology, prognoses and pharmacological responses of patients. Inflammation and its resolution, which often differ between sexes, are dysregulated in chronic inflammatory ...

Natural Products Targeting Protein Disulfide Isomerases: New Frontiers for Diabetes, Cancer, and Coagulation

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 6, Issue 5, Page 2165-2181, September 2025.
PDIA4 is significantly upregulated in response to nutrient overload in pancreatic β‐cells, resulting in aberrant ROS production, β‐cell failure, and diabetes. PDIA4 facilitates cancer development by inhibiting caspase‐mediatedcell death in cancer and promoting VEGF‐mediated protumoral immunity andangiogenesis in the tumor microenvironment, highlighting

The catechol estrogen, 4-hydroxyestrone, has tissue-specific estrogen actions [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Endocrinology, 2000
Recent data indicate that the catechol estrogen, 2-hydroxyestrone (2-OHE(1)), has no effect on any target tissue including bone, whereas 16 alpha-hydroxyestrone (16 alpha-OHE(1)) exerts tissue-selective estrogen agonist activity. The effect of the catechol estrogen, 4-hydroxyestrone (4-OHE(1)), putatively associated with tumorigenesis, has not been ...
