A facile and sensitive chemiluminescence enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) of estriol 3-sulfate using a bridge-heterologous system was established. 6 alpha-Hydroxyestriol 3-sulfate 6-hemisuccinate was synthesized as a novel hapten. Antisera were raised in male guinea-pigs against 6 alpha-hydroxyestriol 3-sulfate 6-hemisuccinate-bovine serum
A highly specific anti-estriol 3-sulfate antiserum was treated with 50% ammonium sulfate, and the crude globulin fraction was coupled to CNBr-activated Sepharose-4B. Addition of 0.1M Tris-HC1 buffer (pH 8.3) containing 0.1M glutamine to the solution of antigen-antibody enabled assaying without
The concentration of 16 alpha-hydroxydehydroepiandrosterone-3-sulfate (16 alpha-OHDHAS) was determined in 29 samples of human breast cyst fluid (BCF) and in 15 of these, androst-5-ene-3 beta,16 alpha,17 beta-triol-3-sulfate (A-TriolS) was also assayed. The median value of both was about 100 ng/mL

Although cystic lesions of the breast are not precancerous per se, statistical studies have indicated that this condition predisposes a 2- to 4-fold greater risk for breast cancer. Seeking a hormonal etiology to this correlation, investigators have analyzed breast cyst
The concentrations of 16 alpha-hydroxydehydroepi-androsterone sulfate (16 alpha-OHDHAS) and androst-5-ene-3 beta, 16 alpha-, 17 beta-triol-3-sulfate (A-TriolS) were measured in the plasma and breast cyst fluid (BCF) of women with gross cystic disease of the breast. In the 19 BCF samples
