2,3-Bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-propionitrile (Diarylprepionitrile, DPN) is an ERβ-selective agonist; IC50 = 15nM. DPN protects WT and ARKO mice and significantly decreases IL-1β following LPS treatment in young adult-derived microglia. PPT (Cat. No.H6036, ERa agonist) enhances cell proliferation, while DPN inhibits it. PPT increases Bcl-2 expression, while DPN decreases it. DPN also elevates Bax expression. DPN induces a dose-dependent increase on vitellogenin synthesis. PPT and DPN are effective in dynamically, but differentially regulating intracellular calcium signaling in hippocampal neurons. DPN is more efficacious than PPT in potentiating a physiological concentration of glutamate-induced intracellular Ca2+ rise in these neurons. DPN prevents the development of prostatic hyperplasia and inflammation in testosterone-treated LuRKO mice.

There is strong evidence that the pro-inflammatory microenvironment during post-partum mammary involution promotes parity-associated breast cancer. Estrogen exposure during mammary involution drives tumor growth through neutrophils' activity. However, how estrogen and neutrophils influence mammary involution are unknown. Combined analysis of
Well-defined physiological functions of estrogens are mediated via nuclear estrogen receptors α (ESR1) and β (ESR2). With regard to hematological malignancies, expression of ESR2 has been found in both B and T cell lymphomas. In addition to endogenous estrogens or
There is a strong association between obesity and colorectal cancer (CRC), especially in men, whereas estrogen protects against both the metabolic syndrome and CRC. Colon is the first organ to respond to high-fat diet (HFD), and estrogen receptor beta (ERβ)

Endogenous hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a potent vasodilator and proangiogenic second messenger synthesized from L-cysteine by cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) and cystathionine γ-lyase (CTH). Estrogens are potent vasodilators that stimulate H2S biosynthesis in uterine arteries (UA) in vivo; however, the underlying
Hyperalgesic priming, an estrogen dependent model of the transition to chronic pain, produced by agonists at receptors that activate protein kinase C epsilon (PKCε), occurs in male but not in female rats. However, activation of second messengers downstream of PKCε
