Target pathways NA
IC50 NA
Potency The results demonstrate the potential estrogenic activities of DEE, providing scientific evidence supporting their use in traditional medicine
Cell line/ mice model MCF-7, immature rat uterotrophic assay
Additional information  In addition, immature rat uterotrophic assay was carried out to identify estrogenic activity of DEE in vivo. The lowest concentration of DEE slightly increased the uterine wet weight, but there was no significant effect with the highest concentration of DEE.
