Estrone sulfate (E1S), or 17β-estrone 3-sulfate, is a natural, endogenous steroid and an estrogen ester.[3] E1S itself is biologically inactive, with less than 1% of the relative binding affinity of estradiol for the ERα and ERβ,[4] but it can be converted by steroid sulfatase (also called estrogen sulfatase) into estrone, which is an estrogen.[5] Simultaneously, estrogen sulfotransferases convert estrone to E1S, resulting in an equilibrium between the two steroids in various tissues.[5] E1S is thought to serve as a long-lasting reservoir for estrone and estradiol in the body.[6][7] In addition to its biological role, as the sodium salt, sodium estrone sulfate, E1S is the primary active estrogen in conjugated equine estrogens (Premarin) and esterified estrogens.[1] Aside from its presence in these estrogen formulations, E2S is not available as a commercial pharmaceutical drug. However, it is available as estropipate (piperazine estrone sulfate), a salt of E1S and piperazine.[1]
