MedKoo Cat#: 146206 | Name: Zearalanone

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Zearalanone is a non-steroidal estrogenic mycotoxin derived from zearalenone, produced by certain Fusarium species that contaminate grains and cereals. It mimics the structure and activity of natural estrogens, binding to estrogen receptors and disrupting endocrine functions in animals and humans. This compound is primarily studied for its effects on reproductive systems and has been used experimentally to promote growth in livestock, though its use is restricted due to health concerns. Zearalanone's mechanism centers on its high affinity for estrogen receptors, leading to altered gene expression and hormonal imbalances.
