Endocrine disruption assay results. Endocrine disruption activity of DES, as determined by assays on several cell lines, for the alpha oestrogen receptor ERα (circle) as either an agonist (magenta) or antagonist (blue), and for the xenobiotic receptor PXR (square) as either an agonist (green) or antagonist (orange). The activity of ERα is regulated by the steroid and oestrogen sex hormone 17β-estradiol (E2). A known agonist for PXR is SR 12813
