Chemical activators of sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) include a range of compounds that enhance the protein's hormone-binding function through various mechanisms of action. Diethylstilbestrol, a synthetic estrogen, directly binds to SHBG, leading to a conformational change that increases the protein's affinity for binding sex hormones, thereby activating SHBG's ability to tightly bind its natural ligands. Similarly, natural hormones like estradiol and testosterone interact with SHBG, which not only enhances the stability of SHBG but also increases its binding capacity, effectively activating the protein's physiological role in hormone transport and regulation. The interaction of these hormones with SHBG underscores the specificity and sensitivity of SHBG to its ligands, which is essential for its role in modulating the bioavailability of sex hormones in the bloodstream.

Furthermore, compounds such as Bisphenol A and the phytoestrogen genistein bind to SHBG, potentially inducing conformational shifts that can activate the protein's ligand-binding activity. Another phytoestrogen, coumestrol, shows a similar interaction, suggesting that these compounds can enhance SHBG's functionality in hormone binding. Non-steroidal environmental estrogens like triclosan and methoxychlor also exhibit the capacity to bind and activate SHBG, suggesting that SHBG is responsive to a variety of structurally diverse compounds. Additional chemicals, including daidzein, propylparaben, 4-Nonylphenol, and 4-tert-Octylphenol, can interact with SHBG in a manner that leads to the activation of the protein's hormone-binding ability. These interactions emphasize the role of SHBG as a central mediator in the regulation of hormone levels within the circulatory system, responding to both endogenous and exogenous chemical signals by adjusting its binding capacity and thus influencing the transport and bioavailability of sex hormones.
