Propylparaben regulates the PI3K-AKT and JNK signaling pathways, and induces oxidative stress. Propylparaben is commonly used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and foods, and can be used in studies related to ovarian aging and myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Bavachin, a flavonoid first isolated from seeds of P. corylifolia, acts as a phytoestrogen that activates the estrogen receptors ERα and ERβ with EC₅₀s of 320 and 680 nM, respectively.

Estradiol-d₄ is the deuterium labeled Estradiol. Estradiol is a steroid sex hormone vital to the maintenance of fertility and secondary sexual characteristics in females. Estradiol upregulates IL-6 expression through the estrogen receptor β (ERβ) pathway.

Estradiol-d₅ is deuterium labeled Estradiol. Estradiol is a steroid sex hormone vital to the maintenance of fertility and secondary sexual characteristics in females. Estradiol upregulates IL-6 expression through the estrogen receptor β (ERβ) pathway.

Cholesterol-¹³C₂ is the ¹³C labeled Cholesterol. Cholesterol is the major sterol in mammals. It is making up 20-25% of structural component of the plasma membrane. Plasma membranes are highly permeable to water but relatively impermeable to ions and protons. Cholesterol plays an important role in determining the fluidity and permeability characteristics of the membrane as well as the function of both the transporters and signaling proteins. Cholesterol is also an endogenous estrogen-related receptor α (ERRα) agonist.

GSK-4716 is a selective ERRβ/γ agonist.

Equilin (7-Dehydroestrone) is an important member of the large group of oestrogenic substances and is chemically related to menformon (oestrone). Equilin increases the growth of cortical neurons via an NMDA receptor-dependent mechanism.

β-Estradiol 17-acetate (1,3,5(10)-Estratriene-3,17β-diol 17-acetate) is a long-acting endogenous estrogen precursor and also a cell viability and proliferation enhancer. β-Estradiol 17-acetate promotes the adhesion and proliferation of freshly isolated and revived female-derived human brain microvascular endothelial cells, and reverses the decreased viability of revived male-derived human brain microvascular endothelial cells. β-Estradiol 17-acetate exerts the microvascular protective effect of estrogen, enabling non-tumor human brain microvascular endothelial cells to be cultured in vitro for 2 months after cryopreservation. β-Estradiol 17-acetate is biotransformed into β-estradiol via hydrolase action in the in vitro skin of humans, hairless dogs, rats and hairless mice.

Cholesterol-d₆ is the deuterium labeled Cholesterol. Cholesterol is the major sterol in mammals. It is making up 20-25% of structural component of the plasma membrane. Plasma membranes are highly permeable to water but relatively impermeable to ions and protons. Cholesterol plays an important role in determining the fluidity and permeability characteristics of the membrane as well as the function of both the transporters and signaling proteins. Cholesterol is also an endogenous estrogen-related receptor α (ERRα) agonist.

4,4'-Sulfonyldiphenol-d₈ (Bisphenol S (4,4'-Sulfonyldiphenol)-d₈) is the deuterium labeled 4,4'-Sulfonyldiphenol (HY-W011927).4,4'-Sulfonyldiphenol (Bisphenol S; Bis(4-hydroxyphenyl) sulfone), a substitute for Bisphenol A (HY-18260), is widely used in industrial and consumer products. 4,4'-Sulfonyldiphenol is an estrogen receptor (ER) agonist and can competitively bind to thyroid hormone receptors (TR) with IC₅₀ values for TRα and TRβ are 2650 μM and 2294 μM respectively, thereby affecting breast development and reducing the expression of androgen receptor (AR) in fetal testes. 4,4'-Sulfonyldiphenol promotes the progression of glioblastoma by upregulating the EZH2 mediated PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. Under chronic exposure, 4,4'-Sulfonyldiphenol can cause significant lipid deposition and dyslipidemia in the mouse liver by upregulating JunB and Atf3, and has a role in causing obesity at low doses. 4,4'-Sulfonyldiphenol induces intestinal inflammation by altering the intestinal microbiome. 4,4'-Sulfonyldiphenol accelerates the progression of atherosclerosis in zebrafish embryo larvae.

Bisphenol B is a close structural analog of Bisphenol A (BPA) (HY-18260). Bisphenol B is a potent, orally active endocrine disruptor (ED). Bisphenol B binds to G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) (IC₅₀ = 3.3 μM) with higher affinity and agonistic activity than BPA. Bisphenol B promotes GPER mediated cell migration. Bisphenol B exerts estrogenic effects via GPER pathway at nanomolar concentration. Bisphenol B is used in the manufacture of polycarbonate resin with ED properties.

(R)-Equol is an agonist of both ERα and ERβ with K_is of 27.4 and 15.4 nM, respectively.

Mestranol is an inactive proagent and becomes biologically active on conversion to ethinyl estradiol (EE). Mestranol acts as an estrogen receptor agonist. Mestranol combines with a progestin in vivo and can be used for the research of menopausal hormone or menstrual disorders. Mestranol is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.
