Selecting DNA aptamers for 17β-estradiol
17β-estradiol (E2) is a potent estrogen that has been widely documented in water resources. It falls under the category of endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs), and hence has been included in the EPA’s Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCM3) that will require the monitoring of this …

Regulation of Micrornas by 17β-Estradiol in the Aging Female Brain
<p>Hormone Therapy (HT) is used to increase the 17β-estradiol (E2) levels in women who are going through the menopausal transition to alleviate the negative symptoms associated with menopause and decrease the risk of chronic diseases. Clinical and basic science research had previously shown that HT …

Fate of 17α-Estradiol, 17β-Estradiol, and Estrone in Agricultural Soils and Sediments
… tons of the natural manure-borne estrogens, 17α-estradiol (17α-E2), 17β-estradiol (17β-E2), and estrone (E1). While these estrogens are critical to endocrine systems, the low concentrations observed in the environment can disrupt endocrine function in non-target organisms, e.g., altering …

Untersuchung endokriner Effekte von Benzophenon-2 und 17β-Estradiol in estrogen-rezeptiven Organen
Viele essentielle Funktionen des menschlichen Körpers werden durch Hormone gesteuert. Diese Botenstoffe sind unter anderem an der Regulation des Wachstums, der Reproduktion, des Stoffwechsels, des Elektrolyt- und Wasserhaushaltes und der Immunabwehr beteiligt. Es ist bekannt, dass exogene …

Acute Physiological Effects of Brain-Generated 17β-Estradiol in the Rodent Primary Auditory Cortex
The neuroactive steroid hormone 17β-estradiol (E2) modulates synaptic activity and plasticity in both endocrine and non-endocrine forebrain regions of males and females of a variety of species. Research conducted in songbirds has established that E2 is rapidly synthesized in the auditory forebrain …

Comparative Immunological Effects of a Natural Estrogen (17β-estradiol) versus a Pharmacologic Synthetic Estrogen (17α-ethinyl estradiol)
… estrogens such as synthetic 17α-ethinyl estradiol (EE) occurs via multiple sources (i.e. hormonal contraceptives, environmental contamination, hormone replacement therapy). The natural estrogen, 17β-estradiol (E2), is a well-studied immunomodulatory hormone at both environmental and …

Bulk deposition of pesticide mixtures in a Canadian prairie city and the influence of soil temperature fluctuations on 17β-estradiol mineralization
… study examined the mineralization of 2,4-D and 17β-estradiol using a novel in-field soil microcosm study and a series of laboratory experiments under different temperature incubations. Results indicated that temperature fluctuations do not greatly affect the amount or rate of mineralization …

Effects of 17β-estradiol on learning and memory and strategy use during a hole board spatial navigation task in aged male rats
<p>Treatment with 17β- estradiol has been shown to ameliorate age related deficits in spatial learning and memory as well as to promote the use of an allocentric strategy during spatial navigation. While the majority of research using 17β- estradiol has been done using females rodents, there have …

The role of boron alone or in combination with estrogen or PTH in the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis in ovariectomized rats
… 5 ppm (5 mg per kg diet) boron as boric acid, 17β estradiol (30 μg/kg/d, s.c.), PTH (rat PTH 1-34 fragment, 60 μg/kg/d, s.c.), boron+17β estradiol, and boron+PTH at the same dose. All rats had free access to food (AIN 76) and deionized water. Ovariectomy caused decreases in the ratios of dried …

Hydroxyl Radical Production via Acoustic Cavitation in Ultrasonic Humidifier Systems
… found using DMPO as a spin trap. Caffeine and 17β-estradiol, as pharmaceutical contaminants of drinking water, were both emitted from the humidifier when present in the water reservoir and would enter breathing air. Emitted 17β-estradiol was found at 60% of the initial concentration filled in …

Effects of Long-Term Exposure of Normal C57BL/6J Inbred Mice to 17β-Estradiol on Gene Expression in Lymphocytes: mRNA Analysis of Lymphokines and bcl-2/fas
… investigate the effect of long-term exposure to 17β-estradiol on lymphokine and bcl-2/fas (proto-oncogenes) mRNA expression. We evaluated the effects of estrogen on the expression of genes for lymphokines, which are essential for the immune response. It is hypothesized that estrogen may regulate …
