Estrone sulphate plasma levels in postmenopausal women with and without endometrial cancer. 1984

V M Jasonni, and C Bulletti, and F Franceschetti, and M Bonavia, and G Bolelli, and P Ciotti, and C Flamigni

Plasma estrone sulphate ( E1S ) and estrone (E1) concentrations were determined in healthy postmenopausal women and in postmenopausal women with endometrial cancer, matched for body weight, age, and years since menopause. E1S levels (mean +/- SD) were significantly higher (P less than 0.05) in cancer patients with normal weight (511 +/- 200 pg/ml) than in control subjects (303 +/- 99 pg/ml). E1S levels were also higher in obese cancer patients (691 +/- 328 pg/ml) than in obese control subjects (610 +/- 139 pg/ml). Both cancer groups showed similar plasma E1 levels as compared with their respective controls. The E1S /E1 ratio was higher in both groups of cancer patients than in control subjects. These data suggest that estrogen conjugates should be taken into account during studies on estrogen balance and endometrial cancer.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008593 Menopause The last menstrual period. Permanent cessation of menses (MENSTRUATION) is usually defined after 6 to 12 months of AMENORRHEA in a woman over 45 years of age. In the United States, menopause generally occurs in women between 48 and 55 years of age. Change of Life, Female
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D011863 Radioimmunoassay Classic quantitative assay for detection of antigen-antibody reactions using a radioactively labeled substance (radioligand) either directly or indirectly to measure the binding of the unlabeled substance to a specific antibody or other receptor system. Non-immunogenic substances (e.g., haptens) can be measured if coupled to larger carrier proteins (e.g., bovine gamma-globulin or human serum albumin) capable of inducing antibody formation. Radioimmunoassays
D001835 Body Weight The mass or quantity of heaviness of an individual. It is expressed by units of pounds or kilograms. Body Weights,Weight, Body,Weights, Body
D004970 Estrone An aromatized C18 steroid with a 3-hydroxyl group and a 17-ketone, a major mammalian estrogen. It is converted from ANDROSTENEDIONE directly, or from TESTOSTERONE via ESTRADIOL. In humans, it is produced primarily by the cyclic ovaries, PLACENTA, and the ADIPOSE TISSUE of men and postmenopausal women.
