Abstract Cardioprotective and antiradical activities of estrogens and their nitro derivatives are compared. Antiradical activity was observed in estradiol, ethanol estradiol, and estradiol nitrate, but not in nystranol, which exhibited antiradical properties only after acid hydrolysis. The data obtained on hearts from rats with experimental myocardial infarction show that estrogens and their nitro derivatives restrict the area of myocardial infarction due to antiischemic and/or antinecrotic activities.
