Possible Interaction: Steroids and Cupric Cation

supplement:

Cupric Cation

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Affinity and the number of binding sites were affected in the presence of cupric ions , indicating a mixed type inhibition of the binding of steroid to receptor.
Contraception  •  1978  |  View Paper
The strand scission/nicking of DNA by the test steroid was enhanced by some metal ions, especially the Cu(II).

The effects of copper ions on the binding of steroids to receptors revealed that the inhibitory effect of Cu++ was apparent at 10(-6)M, ANd the binding capacities decreased to 10% at 10(-2)M Cu++.
The kinetic study demonstrated that Cu++ was a competitive inhibitor of steroid hormone-receptor binding (Ki divided by 2.7 X 10(-5)M to estrogen receptor; Ki divided by 5.1 X 10(-6)M to progesterone receptor).
