✦ Synopsis


A prospective study of 5,000 women has shown that, compared to controls, those who subsequently developed breast cancer had a higher proportion of their blood oestradiol in the non-protein-bound and albumin-bound fractions (the bio-available fraction) and a lower proportion in the sex-hormone-bound fraction. The increased proportion of bio-available oestradiol was partly due to a lower concentration of sex-horrnone-binding globulin. Weight was excluded as a confounding factor.

## Abstract The distribution of oestradiol in plasma from post‐menopausal women with or without breast cancer has been measured and related to the metabolic clearance rates of oestradiol (MCR‐E2). All measurements were carried out preoperatively. No difference in the free fraction of oestradiol was
