Hispanic women are at lower risk for incident breast cancer, but the reasons for this lower risk are unknown. Among postmenopausal women, breast cancer risk is inversely associated with circulating levels of 2-hydroxyestrone but directly associated with levels of 16alpha-hydroxyestrone

This paper presents an analytical method applied to the determination of 3 natural steroid hormones, estrone, 17 beta-estradiol, and 16 alpha-hydroxyestrone, and the contraceptive estrogen, 17 alpha-ethynylestradiol, at the sub-ng/L level in water samples [surface water and wastewater treatment plant

To determine if levels of endogenous estrogen or estrogen metabolites are associated with an increased risk of developing knee osteoarthritis (OA) in women. Serum estradiol (E2) and 2 urinary estrogen metabolites (2-hydroxyestrone and 16alpha-hydroxyestrone) with radiographically defined prevalent and incident

It has been suggested that the relative importance of oestrogen-metabolising pathways may affect the risk of oestrogen-dependent tumours including endometrial cancer. One hypothesis is that the 2-hydroxy pathway is protective, whereas the 16α-hydroxy pathway is harmful. We conducted a case-control

To evaluate the effects of soygerm isoflavones extracts on blood lipoproteins, antioxidative capacity and urinary estrogen metabolites in postmenopausal women who receive hormone therapy (HT). Thirty-nine volunteers receiving HT were recruited, and 33 completed the study. All subjects received 6
