Biological Activity

Description Clomifene citrate (NSC 35770, Clomiphene citrate) is a selective estrogen receptor modulator, used in the treatment of ovulation induction.
Targets
Estrogen receptor [1]
In vitro Clomifene competes with [3H]-QNB and [3H]-nitrendipine for their binding to the receptor in the membrane fractions from the urinary bladder and myometrium. [1] Clomifene inhibits estrogen receptors in the hypothalamus, inhibiting negative feedback of estrogen on gonadotropinrelease, leading to up-regulation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis. Clomifene is a mixture of two geometric isomers, enclomifene (E-clomifene) and zuclomifene (Z-clomifene). [2]
In vivo Clomiphene citrate treatment significantly increases the chance of homosexuality and effeminized behavior in male mice. [3]
