Estrone sulfate (E1S), or estrone 3-sulfate, is a natural, endogenous steroid and an estrogen ester and conjugate.[1]

In addition to its role as a natural hormone, estrone sulfate is used as a medication, for instance in menopausal hormone therapy; for information on estrone sulfate as a medication, see the estrone sulfate (medication) article.

Biological function

E1S itself is biologically inactive, with less than 1% of the relative binding affinity of estradiol for the ERα and ERβ,[2] but it can be converted by steroid sulfatase (also called estrogen sulfatase) into estrone, which is an estrogen.[3] Simultaneously, estrogen sulfotransferases convert estrone to E1S, resulting in an equilibrium between the two steroids in various tissues.[3] E1S is thought to serve as a long-lasting reservoir for estrone and estradiol in the body.[4][5]

Chemistry

E1S, also known as estrone 3-sulfate or as estra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-one 3-sulfate, is a naturally occurring estrane steroid and a derivative of estrone.[6] It is an estrogen conjugate or ester, and is specifically the C3 sulfate ester of estrone.[6] Related estrogen conjugates include estradiol sulfate, estriol sulfate, estrone glucuronide, estradiol glucuronide, and estriol glucuronide, while related steroid conjugates include dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate and pregnenolone sulfate.
