Background:

10β,17β-dihydroxyestra-1,4-dien-3-one (DHED) is a brain-targeting bioprecursor prodrug of the main human estrogen, 17β-estradiol, alleviates hot flushes in rat models of thermoregulatory dysfunction of the brain[1].

10β,17β-dihydroxyestra-1,4-dien-3-one (DHED), is an inactive bioprecursor prodrug of 17β-estradiol converting to 17β-estradiol only in the brain. DHED as an E2-bioprecursor may be a viable approach for delivering E2 selectively into the brain for the potential treatment of hot flushes[1].
