17 beta Estradiol ELISA Kit ab108667 protocol summary
Estradiol 17-beta also known as 17-beta estradiol or beta estradiol is a steroid hormone with a molecular weight of approximately 272.38 g/mol. This hormone is the most biologically active form of estrogen and primarily synthesized by the ovaries though its presence is also noted in adipose tissue and the adrenal glands. Within the body 17-beta estradiol travels through the bloodstream to various tissues where it binds to estrogen receptors modulating gene expression and affecting numerous physiological processes.
Estrogenic activities of estradiol 17-beta are important for reproductive and non-reproductive systems. It significantly influences the development and maintenance of female secondary sexual characteristics. This hormone also engages in the regulation of the menstrual cycle and reproductive function by interacting with other hormonal signals in the body. It can form complexes with estrogen receptors leading to DNA interactions that regulate the transcription of certain genes. Beyond reproduction estradiol 17-beta exerts effects on bone density cardiovascular health skin health and brain function.
Various cellular systems utilize estradiol 17-beta in their signaling. It takes an essential role in the estrogen signaling pathway and interacts with the estrogen receptor pathway. These interactions commonly involve crosstalk with other proteins such as progesterone and androgens impacting cellular functions. The estrogen signaling pathway influence on gene transcription highlights its part in regulating cell proliferation apoptosis and differentiation processes.
Hormone imbalances involving estradiol 17-beta can lead to various conditions. It is notably associated with breast cancer where abnormal levels and receptor engagement can stimulate tumor growth. Osteoporosis is another disorder linked to estrogen levels as estradiol 17-beta preserves bone density by modulating bone resorption. Additionally hormonal fluctuations involving related proteins like aromatase and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) can exacerbate the progression of these diseases further linking estradiol 17-beta to critical health outcomes.
