Oestrone hormone molecule
Oestrone hormone molecule. Computer model showing the structure of the female sex hormone oestrone. Atoms are colour-coded - carbon: dark grey, hydrogen: light grey, and oxygen: red. Oestrone is one of three naturally occurring oestrogens, a class of hormones that are associated with the development of the female reproductive organs and secondary sex characteristics. It is secreted in the ovaries and maintains female fertility up until the menopause. Oestrone sulphate may be used in hormone replacement therapy to treat some clinical symptoms of the menopause

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a computer model of the Oestrone hormone molecule, providing an intricate visualization of its structure. The atoms within the molecule are color-coded, with carbon represented by dark grey, hydrogen by light grey, and oxygen depicted in vibrant red. Oestrone belongs to a group of naturally occurring hormones called oestrogens that play a crucial role in the development of female reproductive organs and secondary sex characteristics. Secreted primarily in the ovaries, Oestrone ensures female fertility until menopause sets in. Its significance extends beyond this period as well since Oestrone sulphate can be utilized during hormone replacement therapy to alleviate certain clinical symptoms associated with menopause. The white background enhances the clarity of this molecular model, allowing us to appreciate its complexity and beauty. This image encompasses various scientific fields such as chemistry, biochemistry, endocrinology, and reproduction. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers studying protein structures or investigating hormonal interactions at a molecular level. Science Photo Library presents this stunning visual representation without any commercial intent. By offering cut-out versions alongside rod-shaped models and ball-and-stick representations, they provide diverse options for scientific exploration and education purposes alike.
