General description

β-Estradiol 6-(O-carboxy­methyl)oxime: BSA is an estradiol conjugate and is membrane-impermeable. BSA is linked to the estradiol at position 6 to form the β-estradiol 6-(O-carboxymethyl) oxime: BSA conjugate.

Application

β-Estradiol 6-(O-carboxy­methyl)oxime: BSA has been used:
  • to test its effect on the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) currents in female dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons
  • to coat microplates for the detection of plasma 17β-Estradiol levels using indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
  • to test its effect on MutL homolog 1 in colorectal cancer lines

Biochem/physiol Actions

β-Estradiol 6-(O-carboxy­methyl)oxime: BSA mimics estrogen and favors amyloid precursor protein α (sAPPα) secretion in vitro studies with primary rat cortical neurons. It also stimulates mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activity in human umbilical vein endothelial cells

Estrogen induces both rapid and delayed effects on the cardiovascular system. The early effects take place within minutes (e.g., changes in vasomotor tone) and are mediated through rapid intracellular signaling pathways; whereas the delayed effects (e.g., remodeling or lipid alterations)

Estrogen exerts multiple actions in the brain and is an important neuroprotective factor in a number of neuronal disorders. However, the underlying mechanism remains unknown. Studies demonstrate that ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme 9 (ubc9) has an integral role in synaptic plasticity and
