erβ

Alpha-Estradiol (Epiestradiol) is an estrogen that inhibits 5alpha-reductase and has potential in the study of androgenetic alopecia.

ERα ERβ antagonist-1 (Compound 10) functions as a partial antagonist of both ERα and ERβ. It reduces the activity of ERα and ERβ in HepG2 liver cells in a dose-dependent manner.

NXT629 is a selective and highly efficient PPAR-α antagonist with anticancer activity. It inhibits PPARδ, PPARγ, Erβ, GR, and TRβ and can be used in research on ovarian cancer and melanoma.

Tamoxifen (ICI47699) is a selective and orally effective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM). Tamoxifen has both inhibitory (e.g., mammary cells) and activating (e.g., bone, liver, and uterine cells) activity against estrogens.

Fulvestrant (ZM 182780) is an estrogen receptor (ER) antagonist (IC50=9.4 nM) and an agonist of GPR30. Fulvestrant has antitumor activity, inhibiting cell proliferation and inducing apoptosis and autophagy.

4-Hydroxytamoxifen (ICI 79280) is the active metabolite of Tamoxifen, an estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) with selective and oral potency. 4-Hydroxytamoxifen has antitumor activity and may be used in breast cancer research.

Zindoxifene (D 16726) is an anti-estrogenic compound with antitumor activity that can be used in studies of breast and prostate cancer.

Estrogen receptor antagonist 8 acts as an estrogen receptor (ER) antagonist with anti-uterine activity and potential anti-tumorigenic activity and can be used to study ovarian dysfunction.

Estradiol (E2) is a naturally occurring steroidal sex hormone that is essential for female fertility and maintenance of secondary sexual characteristics. Estradiol upregulates IL-6 expression through estrogen receptor beta (ERβ).

Megestrol acetate (BDH1298) is a progestogen with actions and uses similar to those of the progestogens in general. Megestrol acetate also has anti-androgenic properties. It is given by mouth in the palliative treatment or as an adjunct to other therapy in endometrial carcinoma and in breast cancer. Megestrol acetate has been approved to treat anorexia and cachexia.

Progesterone (Pregn-4-ene-3,20-dione) is the major progestational steroid that is secreted primarily by the CORPUS LUTEUM and the PLACENTA. Progesterone acts on the UTERUS, the MAMMARY GLANDS and the BRAIN. It is required in EMBRYO IMPLANTATION; PREGNANCY maintenance, and the development of mammary tissue for MILK production.

Levonorgestrel (D-Norgestrel) is a Progestin and Progestin-containing Intrauterine Device. The physiologic effect of levonorgestrel is by means of Inhibit Ovum Fertilization.

Ethisterone (17α-Ethynyltestosterone) is a progestogen hormone.

Kaempferol (Robigenin) is a natural flavonoid and an inverse agonist of ERRα and ERRγ. Kaempferol has a wide range of antitumor, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial and antiviral activities.

Tamoxifen is an antineoplastic nonsteroidal selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM).

(E Z)-Endoxifen ((E Z)-Endoxifen) is an active metabolite of tamoxifen produced by the sequential action of cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms, including CYP2D6. It is a strong anti-estrogen, as it has an approximately 100-fold greater affinity for estrogen receptors than tamoxifen. As the efficient conversion of tamoxifen to endoxifen depends on CYP2D6, polymorphisms in this CYP isoform can impact the effectiveness of TMX treatment.

Ethynyl estradiol is a semisynthetic alkylated ESTRADIOL with a 17-alpha-ethinyl substitution. It has high estrogenic potency when administered orally, and is often used as the estrogenic component in ORAL CONTRACEPTIVES.

Ospemifene (FC-1271a) is a new selective non-hormonal estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) that is used for the treatment of moderate to severe dyspareunia, a symptom of vulvar and vaginal atrophy, due to menopause. FDA approved on February 26, 2013.

OBHSA(Oxabicycloheptane sulfonamide) is a novel selective estrogen receptor depressant (SERD) that can be used to study breast cancer.

Dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol (DHCA) is a lignan isolated from calabash that inhibits osteoclast differentiation and oophorectomy induced bone loss by acting as an estrogen receptor agonist.

Toremifene (GTx 006) is a selective estrogen-receptor modulator (SERM).

G36 is a cell-permeable non-steroidal antagonist of GPER. G36 inhibits activation by either 17β-estradiol or the GPER-selective agonist G-1 (IC50 = 112 and 165 nM, respectively). G36 has no detectable binding activity to either ERα or ERβ. G36 blocks the activation of PI3K or calcium mobilization triggered by estrogen through GPER and it suppresses ERK activation by estrogen or G-1 but not by EGF. G-36 can be used in combination with GPER-selective agonists, like G-1, to distinguish the roles of GPER from those of ERα and ERβ in complex biological systems.

Serba-2 is an agonist of benzopyran selective estrogen receptor beta.
