According to a study from Mexico, "17 beta-aminoestrogens (AEs) produce anticoagulant effects in rats contrasting with 17 beta-estradiol (EA procoagulant effects, their estrogenic effects are similar to E-2, decreasing serum luteinizing hormone (LH), increasing uterine weight (Uw), activate transcription through the ER alpha and ER beta receptors and pentolame induces progesterone (P) receptors in the anterior pituitary of ovariectomized (Ovx) rats similarly to E-2, suggesting possible effects on female rats' sexual behavior. This work evaluated the AEs prolame, butolame, pentolame compared to E-2 and estradiol benzoate (EB) as facilitators on the rat lordotic behavior."

"Dose-response curves were performed in rats by single subcutaneous (s.c.) injection (time zero)of. E-2 (approximate to 0.3, 3, 30, 60, 300 mu g/kg): EB (approximate to 0.4, 4, 40, 80, 400 mu g/kg); prolame, butolame, pentolame (approximate to 40, 400. 2000 or 4000 mg/kg), vehicle (corn oil; 300 mu L/day; = 1.2 mL/kg) as control; 24 h after, P (1 mg/rat in 100 mu L of corn oil: approximate to 4 to 5 mg/kg) was administered, and 5 to 7 h later LQ was evaluated (number of lordosis displays / number of mounts x 100). E-2. EB and AEs followed by P administration, induced lordosis in a dose-dependent manner. Prolame induced an LQEmax of 92, butolame 85. EB 81, pentolame 44 and E-2 43. The most potent was EB (LQED50 of 41 +/- 05 mu g/kg); then E-2 10 +/- mu g 2.2/kg; prolame 268 +/- 19 mu g/kg: butolame 402 +/- 21 mu g/kg, and pentolame 1037 +/- 28 mu g/kg. The AEs LQ potency decreases as length ...
