Introduction of 72-33-3 :

Mestranol is an inactive prodrug and becomes biologically active on conversion to ethinyl estradiol (EE). Mestranol acts as an estrogen receptor agonist. Mestranol combines with a progestin in vivo and can be used for the research of menopausal hormone or menstrual disorders[1][2]. In Vitro: Mestranol is a low potency synthetic estrogen that has been shown to be much more stable than 17β-Estradiol(HY-B0141) in hepatoma cell culture[3].
Mestranol (10 μM; 6 days) stimulates the growth of ERpositive MCF-7 WS8 cells up to 250% of control levels, growth stimulation could be partially reversed by tamoxifen[3].
However, in Hep G2 hepatoma cells, Mestranol (10 μM; 6 days) inhibits the growth of Hep 3B cells by 40% compared to control cells. Mestranol alone or cotreatment with tamoxifen both can inhibit cell growth. And cotreatment exhibits an additive effect with tamoxifen on growth inhibition[2].
