Product Overview
Description:
Equilenin is an equine-specific steroid estrogen isolated from the urine matrices of pregnant mares. Distinct from human-derived estrogens, this unsaturated molecule does not modulate endothelial nitric oxide synthase expression or alter nitric oxide generation, and its metabolic processing yields highly reactive hydroxylated intermediates capable of driving cellular transformation in fibroblast models.
Synonyms:
3-hydroxy-estra-1,3,5,7,9-pentaen-17-one; 517-09-9; (+)-Equilenin; d-Equilenin; Equilenine; 3-Hydroxyestra-1,3,5,7,9-pentaen-17-one; 3-Hydroxyestra-1,3,5(10),6,8-pentaen-17-one; Estra-1,3,5,7,9-pentaen-17-one, 3-hydroxy-; (13S,14S)-3-hydroxy-13-methyl-12,14,15,16-tetrahydro-11H-cyclopenta[a]phenanthren-17-one; 3-Hydroxyoestra-1,3,5(10),6,8-pentaen-17-one; 6,8-didehydroestrone; 3-Hydroxyestra-1(10),2,4,6,8-pentaen-17-one; d-3-hydroxy-1,3,5(10),6,8-estrapentaen-17-one; 3-Hydroxy-13-methyl-11,12,13,14,15,16-hexahydrocyclopenta[a]phenanthren-17-one
