Product Description
Mechanism of Action
Estriol (E3) is a weaker estrogen produced mainly during pregnancy. It binds ER/ER with lower affinity than estradiol but still regulates reproductive and urogenital tissues through transcriptional modulation and membraneinitiated signalling.
Benefits and Advantages
Used in lowpotency estrogen research, mucosaltissue modelling, ERligand affinity studies, and selectiveestrogen pharmacology.
Side Effects and Risks
Risks include mild nausea, breast tenderness and low but present thrombotic risk. Handle with lowpotency estrogen precautions.
Only GMP materials will be supplied, logistics all according to GDP.
