Description Research Excerpts Clinical Trials Roles Classes Pathways Study Profile Bioassays Related Drugs Related Conditions Protein Interactions Research Growth Market Indicators

Estriol-16 alpha-glucuronide is a major urinary metabolite of estriol, a naturally occurring estrogen hormone. It is formed by the conjugation of estriol with glucuronic acid at the 16 alpha position. This conjugation process is catalyzed by UDP-glucuronosyltransferases, enzymes responsible for detoxification and elimination of various compounds from the body. Estriol-16 alpha-glucuronide is a relatively inactive form of estriol and is primarily excreted in urine. Research on this compound focuses on its potential use as a biomarker for estrogen production and metabolism. Additionally, studies have explored its role in pregnancy, particularly in relation to fetal growth and development. The compound's stability in urine makes it an attractive target for non-invasive monitoring of estrogen levels. Furthermore, its levels are known to fluctuate during pregnancy, suggesting potential connections to placental function and fetal well-being.'
