Pregna-4,16-diene-3,20-dione

Description:

Pregna-4,16-diene-3,20-dione, commonly known as progesterone, is a steroid hormone that plays a crucial role in the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and embryogenesis in humans and other species. It is characterized by its molecular formula, which consists of 21 carbon atoms, 30 hydrogen atoms, and 2 oxygen atoms. This compound features a steroid backbone with specific functional groups, including a ketone at positions 3 and 20, and a double bond between carbons 4 and 5, as well as between carbons 16 and 17. Progesterone is a lipophilic molecule, which allows it to easily cross cell membranes and bind to specific nuclear receptors, influencing gene expression. It is synthesized in the ovaries, placenta, and adrenal glands and is vital for maintaining pregnancy and regulating various physiological processes. In addition to its biological significance, progesterone is also used therapeutically in hormone replacement therapy and to treat various reproductive health issues. Its CAS number, 1096-38-4, is a unique identifier that facilitates its identification in chemical databases.

16-DehydroprogesteroNe

Controlled Product

CAS: 1096-38-4

16-DehydroprogesteroNe is a metabolite of progesterone that is produced by the enzyme hydrolysis. 16-DehydroprogesteroNe has been shown to inhibit cell growth and induce apoptosis in human breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-231) and colon cancer cells (HCT116). It also has physiological activities that are similar to progesterone, including anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. 16-DehydroprogesteroNe can be produced from the metabolism of progesterone by the enzymes side chain cleavage or oxidative reactions with rifampin or rat liver microsomes. This metabolite may have health effects on the bowel, such as inflammatory bowel disease, and may be involved in hormone regulation.
