17α-Estradiol

17α-Estradiol (also known as 17α-E2, 17-epiestradiol, alfatradiol, or estra-1,3,5(10)-triene-3,17α-diol) is a minor and weak endogenous steroidal estrogen that is related to 17β-estradiol (better known simply as estradiol).[2] It is the C17 epimer of estradiol.[2] It has approximately 100-fold lower estrogenic potency than 17β-estradiol.[3] The compound shows preferential affinity for the ERα over the ERβ.[2][4] Although 17α-estradiol is far weaker than 17β-estradiol as an agonist of the nuclear estrogen receptors, it has been found to bind to and activate the brain-expressed ER-X with a greater potency than that of 17β-estradiol, suggesting that it may be the predominant endogenous ligand for the receptor.[5]

Aging

Supplementation with 17α-Estradiol increases the median lifespan of male mice by 19%, while not affecting female lifespan. This treatment does not lead to feminization of male mice.[6] 17α-Estradiol furthermore alleviates age-related metabolic and inflammatory dysfunction[7] and improves glucose tolerance[8] in male mice. The exact reason for this sex-specific increase in lifespan is unknown, however, the effect on male lifespan is gone in castrated mice, suggesting that the metabolic response to 17α-Estradiol requires the presence of male gonadal hormones.[9] Whether these results are translatable to humans is currently unknown.
