Safety & protection
Toxicology
Health Effects
Animal studies show that HPTE may affect the reproductive system, causing harm to the ovaries, uterus, and mating cycle in females, and the testes and prostate in males, as well as decreased fertility in both sexes. Low dose HPTE exposure may also cause EEG pattern changes. (T10, L167)
Toxicity Summary
2,2-bis(p-hydroxyphenyl)-1,1, 1-trichloroethane (HPTE), acts as an estrogen analogue. HPTE is an estrogen receptor alpha agonist, and also acts as an antagonist at the estrogen receptor beta and androgen receptor. HPTE specifically inhibits the P450 cholesterol side-chain cleavage enzyme (P450scc, CYP11A1) resulting in decreased androgen production testicular Leydig cells along with decreased progesterone production by ovarian cells (A7861). HPTE directly inhibit human CYP17A1 activity (17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase). The IC50 value of HPTE is 1.13±0.10 uM. The observed changed in EEG patterns as well as tremors, convulsion and seizures with acute methoxychlor/HPTE exposure may be due to the inhibition of key sodium/potassium and calcium channels by HPTE.

Chemistry & industry
Pharmacology
Metabolism/Metabolites
Bis-hydroxy-methoxychlor has known human metabolites that include Tris-hydroxy-methoxychlor.
HPTE or 2,2-bis(p-hydroxyphenyl)-1,1, 1-trichloroethane is a biologically active liver metabolite of methoxychlor. Dechlorination and dehydrochlorination reactions occur to a lesser extent. HPTE is excreted mainly in the feces. (L167)
Uses & manufacturing
Uses
Methoxychlor (the parent compound of HPTE) is used as an insecticide against flies, mosquitoes, cockroaches, chiggers, and a wide variety of other insects. It is used on agricultural crops and livestock, and in animal feed, barns, grain storage bins, home garden, and on pets. (L167)
Applications
Uses2,2-Bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1,1,1-trichloroethane is an active metabolite of Methoxychlor that acts via the estrogen receptor (ER) to stimulate estrogen response element (ERE)-mediated gene transcription in estrogen-sensitive tissues. 2,2-Bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1,1,1-trichloroethane is used in epoxy resins and other epoxide compositions as industrial materials and electric insulators.
