Estrogenic effect

Bazedoxifene is a third generation SERM that displays estrogenic effects in bone and the cardiovascular system, but functions as an antiestrogen in the breast and uterus. [Pg.250]

As under most circumstances progesterone action will hold primacy over estrogenic effects, the cervical mucus, endometrium, and probably the fallopian tubes reflect progestational stimulation. The cervical mucus becomes thick and viscous and thus impervious to spermatozoa. The endometrium is in a state that is not receptive for implantation of a fertilized egg. Probably, the progestational impact on the secretory activity and peristalsis in the fallopian tubes also assists the general contraceptive effect. It is difficult, however, to assess the relative contribution of the various effects to the... [Pg.388]

Recently, leaders in the pharmaceutical industry have developed a list of desired properties for a fourth generation of SERMs (Table 2). In general, future SERMs must oppose endogenous hormone action in the breast and reproductive system while displaying full estrogenic effects in the cardiovasculature, bone and central nervous systems. Additional criteria are that fourth generation compounds possess superior bioavailability compared with existing SERMs and have... [Pg.1116]

In marked contrasts to the flavonoids, the isoflavonoids have a very limited distribution in the plant kingdom and are almost entirely restricted to the subfamily Papilionoidae. Their estrogenic effect was discovered following the observation of a decline in birth rate for sheep fed on Trifolium sublerraneum. Changes in... [Pg.198]
