Interaction of methoxychlor and related compounds with estrogen receptor α and β, and androgen receptor: Structure-activity studies

We previously demonstrated differential interactions of the methoxychlor metabolite 2,2-bis(p-hydroxyphenyl)-1,1,1-trichloroethane (HPTE) with estrogen receptor α (ERα), ERβ, and the androgen receptor (AR). In this study, we characterize the ERα, ERβ, and
