16-Epiestriol (Standard)  (Synonyms: 16-epi-Estriol (Standard); 16β,17β-Estriol (Standard))

16-Epiestriol (Standard) is the analytical standard of 16-Epiestriol (HY-130046). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. 16-Epiestriol (16-epi-Estriol; 16β,17β-Estriol) is a natural stereoisomer of estriol and an anti-inflammatory agent that targets UGT. The Ki values of 16-Epiestriol against human UGT1A10 and UGT2B7 are 98.1 μM and 162 μM, respectively. As a glucuronidation substrate, 16-Epiestriol can be modified at the 3-OH, 16-OH and 17-OH sites by various UGT enzymes; in liver microsomes, the modification mainly occurs at the 16-OH and 17-OH sites, while reactions take place at all three sites in intestinal microsomes. 16-Epiestriol acts on the phase II inflammatory process by blocking edema mediated by prostaglandins and leukocyte infiltration. It lacks glycogenic activity or any effect on blood glucose levels, and serves as an important candidate molecule in the research of inflammatory diseases.

The compound is the grade of analytical standard, which is the reference standard supplied assay. It is commonly used in qualitative, quantitative and methodological research experiments in HPLC, GC and MS.
