Mechanistic insights into the direct antioxidant effects of estrogens

Free‐radical scavenging by estrogens has been implicated as one of their non‐genomic (estrogen‐receptor independent) mechanisms of cytoprotection. This activity is associated with the presence of the phenolic A‐ring in the structure of these molecules, thus rendering them members of the class of com...
