:Equilin 3-O-β-D-glucuronide
Description:
Equilin 3-O-β-D-glucuronide is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of steroid glucuronides, which are derivatives of equilin, a naturally occurring estrogen. This compound is characterized by the presence of a glucuronic acid moiety attached to the 3-position of the equilin structure, which enhances its solubility and facilitates its excretion from the body. Equilin itself is a potent estrogenic compound, and its glucuronide form is typically less active biologically but plays a crucial role in the metabolism and elimination of estrogens. The presence of the glucuronide group can influence the pharmacokinetics of the parent compound, affecting its absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. Equilin 3-O-β-D-glucuronide is often studied in the context of hormone replacement therapy and its implications in various health conditions, including menopausal symptoms and osteoporosis. Its CAS number, 76663-60-0, is used for identification in chemical databases and regulatory contexts.
