CAS 19037-28-6: 5-Pregnene-3alpha-ol-20-one

Description: 5-Pregnene-3alpha-ol-20-one, commonly known as 3α-hydroxy-pregnenolone, is a steroid hormone that plays a significant role in the biosynthesis of other steroid hormones. It is derived from pregnenolone, which is a precursor in the steroidogenesis pathway. This compound is characterized by its steroidal structure, featuring a four-ring core typical of steroids, with a hydroxyl group at the 3α position and a ketone at the 20 position. It is primarily involved in the regulation of various physiological processes, including neurosteroid activity, which can influence mood, cognition, and stress responses. The substance is also studied for its potential therapeutic effects in neurodegenerative diseases and mood disorders. In terms of solubility, it is generally lipophilic, allowing it to easily cross cell membranes and exert its biological effects. As with many steroid hormones, its activity is mediated through specific receptors, leading to a range of biological responses.
