7,8-Dehydro Pregnenolone

Controlled Product

CAS: 1158830-87-5

7,8-Dehydro Pregnenolone is a steroidal hormone that is produced in the body from cholesterol. It is synthesized from progesterone and can be converted back to progesterone. 7,8-Dehydro Pregnenolone has been found in urine samples of pregnant women and horses. The biosynthesis of 7,8-Dehydro Pregnenolone involves three steps: firstly, cholesterol undergoes hydroxylation by cytochrome P450scc to form pregnenolone; secondly, pregnenolone is converted to progesterone through the action of 3β-HSD; finally, progesterone undergoes dehydrogenation by 3α-HSD to form 7,8-dehydroprogesterone.
