abstract：:The oxidative metabolites of estrogen have been proposed to play an important role in the development of some human cancers. The two major pathways of estrogen metabolism, to the carcinogenic 4-hydroxyestradiol (4-OHE2) and to the non-carcinogenic 2-hydroxyestradiol (2-OHE2), are mediated by cytochromes P450 CYP1B1 an...
