(1S,10R,11S,14S,15S)-15-methyltetracyclo[8.7.0.02,7.011,15]heptadeca-2(7),3,5-triene-5,14-diol
IUPAC name
(1S,10R,11S,14S,15S)-15-methyltetracyclo[8.7.0.02,7.011,15]heptadeca-2(7),3,5-triene-5,14-diol

Properties
Pharmacology Properties
Mechanism of Action
Estradiol enters cells freely and interacts with a cytoplasmic target cell receptor.
The mRNA interacts with ribosomes to produce specific proteins that express the effect of estradiol upon the target cell.
When the estrogen receptor has bound its ligand it can enter the nucleus of the target cell, and regulate gene transcription which leads to formation of messenger RNA.
