COUMESTROL Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Description

Coumestrol is a phytoestrogen that occurs naturally in soybeans, spinach, and clover. It competitively (vs. 17β-estradiol, ) binds the estrogen receptors ERα (IC50 = 11 nM) and ERβ (IC50 = 2 nM) and can induce ER-dependent gene expression in isolated cells. Coumestrol is also a weak antagonist of pregnane X receptor (IC50 = 12 μM) as well as a potential inverse agonist of the constitutive androstane receptor (EC50 = 30 μM).

Chemical Properties

Yellow to Beige Powder

Uses

This compound has estrogenic activity. It exhibits bright blue fluorescence in neutral or acid solution, and greenish-yellow fluorescence in strong alkali solution.

Definition

ChEBI: A member of the class of coumestans that is coumestan with hydroxy substituents at positions 3 and 9.

Synthesis Reference(s)

Tetrahedron Letters, 4, p. 1151, 1963 DOI: 10.1039/jr9630005127

Biochem/physiol Actions

Coumestrol has anti-estrogenic actions in the brain and pituitary, mediated through estrogen receptor-α.

Safety Profile

An experimental teratogen. Other experimental reproductive effects. Mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
