Body fluid volumes in rats with mestranol-induced hypertension
Because estrogens have been reported to produce sodium retention, this study investigated the possibility that hypertension in rats resulting from the ingestion of an estrogen used as an oral contraceptive could be due to increases in body fluid volumes.

Mestranol as a repellent to protect Douglas-fir seed from deer mice [PDF]
Mestranol [3-Methoxy-19-nor-17α-pregna-1,3,5 (10)-trien-20-yn-17-ol (C21H2602)] was tested at 2 percent (active) as a repellent for protecting Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) seed from deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus). In 5-day laboratory bioassays,

Contraceptive steroids increase hepatic uptake of chylomicron remnants in healthy young women.
In an investigation of alterations in cholesterol metabolism during contraceptive steroid use, we studied plasma clearance of chylomicron remnants. Six healthy women were studied on and off contraceptive steroid therapy.

Effects of mestranol on estrogen receptors expression in zebrafish
The estrogen receptor (ER) genes, which encode a group of important ligand-activated transcriptional factors, can modulate estrogen-target gene activities. Zebrafish (Danio rerio) have three ER receptor genes,esr1,esr2a, andesr2b.

The Effect of Mestranol on Canine Reproduction [PDF]
A single oral dose of mestranol (l7ct-ethynylestradiol 3-methyl ether) was administered to two groups of eight adult female beagle dogs each on Day 6 or 21 after first acceptance of the male. Based on corpora lutea counts, embryonic loss was 95.5 and 67.3%, respectively, for the two treatment groups, and only 34.5% for the control.

Abstract Female sex is associated with higher incidence and risk of dementia. Estrogen may represent one important mechanism contributing to the increase in incidence rates. In this review, we synthesize narratively the evidence for associations between estrogen—across the life course from menarche to menopause, estrogen‐containing hormonal ...

The effects of a chemosterilant (Mestranol) on population and behavior in the Richardson's ground squirrel (Spermophilus richardsonii) in Alberta [PDF]
A chemosterilant, mestranol, was administered to three populations of Richardson's ground squirrel in southeastern Alberta. Mestranol was given to all squirrels in one plot, to only 50 percent in another plot, while a third plot remained as control.

Concentration of Mestranol in Wastewater using High-Performance liquid chromatography [PDF]
A prevalent estrogen found in oral contraceptives, such as birth control, is the estrogen mimic mestranol. Mestranol has been found to have a negative impact on the environment and is causing an increase in the feminization of fish.
