:Pregna-4,6-diene-3,20-dione
Description:
Pregna-4,6-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 structure, which includes a steroid backbone with a double bond at positions 4 and 6, and keto groups at positions 3 and 20. This compound is a white crystalline solid that is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents like ethanol and chloroform. Progesterone is synthesized in the ovaries, placenta, and adrenal glands and is vital for regulating various physiological processes, including the preparation of the endometrium for potential implantation of an embryo. It also has significant implications in reproductive health and is used in various medical applications, including hormone replacement therapy and contraceptive formulations. The compound's biological activity is mediated through its interaction with progesterone receptors, influencing gene expression and cellular function.

CAS:Controlled Product<p>6-Dehydroprogesterone is a synthetic chiral compound that binds to the receptor α, which is also known as progesterone receptor. It has been shown to be effective in the treatment of prostatic hypertrophy. 6-Dehydroprogesterone is used in biochemical research as a substrate for studying enzymes and receptors. It has also been shown to have anti-cancer properties by inhibiting the growth of human mammary cancer cells, MCF-7 cells. 6-Dehydroprogesterone has been shown to inhibit efflux pumps and cytochrome P450 enzymes, which may contribute to its anti-inflammatory effects. The effective dose for 6DHP ranges from 1 mg/kg/day up to 20 mg/kg/day.</p>Formula:C21H28O2Purity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:PowderMolecular weight:312.45 g/mol
