Estradiol palmitate

Chemical compound

Estradiol palmitate (brand name Esmopal), or estradiol monopalmitate, also known as estradiol 17β-hexadecanoate, is a naturally occurring^[1] steroidal estrogen and an estrogen ester – specifically, the C17β palmitate ester of estradiol.^[2] It occurs in the body as a very long-lasting metabolite and prohormone of estradiol.^[1] The compound has no affinity for the estrogen receptor, requiring transformation into estradiol for its estrogenic activity.^[3] In addition to its endogenous role, estradiol palmitate was formerly used as a fattening agent in chickens under the brand name Esmopal.^[4]^[5]^[6]^[7]^[8]

Footnotes: ^a = Relative binding affinities (RBAs) were determined via in-vitro displacement of labeled estradiol from estrogen receptors (ERs) generally of rodent uterine cytosol. Estrogen esters are variably hydrolyzed into estrogens in these systems (shorter ester chain length -> greater rate of hydrolysis) and the ER RBAs of the esters decrease strongly when hydrolysis is prevented. ^b = Relative estrogenic potencies (REPs) were calculated from half-maximal effective concentrations (EC₅₀) that were determined via in-vitro β‐galactosidase (β-gal) and green fluorescent protein (GFP) production assays in yeast expressing human ERα and human ERβ. Both mammalian cells and yeast have the capacity to hydrolyze estrogen esters. ^c = The affinities of estradiol cypionate for the ERs are similar to those of estradiol valerate and estradiol benzoate (figure).
