AB  - A dry extract from the roots of rhapontic rhubarb (extract Rheum rhaponticum 
      (L.); ERr) has been commercially available in Germany for over two decades to 
      treat menopausal symptoms. However, the molecular basis of its clinical 
      effectiveness remains obscure. This article reviews the in vitro and in vivo data 
      of its estrogenic actions, particularly those mediated by estrogen receptor-beta 
      (ERbeta).
