1,4-PREGNADIEN-3,20-DIONE

Description:

1,4-Pregnadien-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 a specific arrangement of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, reflecting its steroid structure. This compound is typically a white crystalline solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents like ethanol and chloroform but has limited solubility in water. Progesterone functions primarily as a progestogen, influencing various physiological processes, including the regulation of the menstrual cycle and the maintenance of pregnancy. It acts by binding to progesterone receptors, initiating a cascade of biological responses. Additionally, it is involved in the development of mammary glands and the preparation of the endometrium for potential implantation of an embryo. Due to its significant biological roles, progesterone is also utilized in various medical applications, including hormone replacement therapy and contraceptive formulations.

Controlled Product

CAS: 1162-54-5

1,2-Dehydroprogesterone is a low potency glucocorticoid with anti-inflammatory activity. It is used in the treatment of inflammatory disorders, such as asthma and rheumatoid arthritis. The drug binds to glucocorticoid receptors in the cell nucleus and interacts with DNA to regulate gene transcription. Proteins synthesized by the regulated genes are involved in inflammation and immune responses. 1,2-Dehydroprogesterone also has been shown to have strong anti-inflammatory properties.
