11-alpha-hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione

Description:

11-alpha-hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione, commonly known as 11-hydroxyandrostenedione, is a steroid hormone and an important intermediate in the biosynthesis of androgens. It is characterized by its structure, which includes a cyclopentanoperhydrophenanthrene core typical of steroid compounds, with hydroxyl (-OH) and ketone (=O) functional groups at specific positions. This compound is primarily involved in the regulation of various physiological processes, including the development of male characteristics and reproductive functions. It exhibits biological activity as an androgen, influencing muscle growth, fat distribution, and overall metabolism. The substance is often studied in the context of hormonal therapies and athletic performance enhancement. Due to its potential effects on the endocrine system, it is subject to regulation in many sports and medical contexts. Additionally, its synthesis and metabolism can be influenced by various factors, including enzymatic activity and the presence of other hormones. As with many steroids, it is important to handle this compound with care, considering its biological potency and regulatory status.

11b-Hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione is a synthetic substrate that has been shown to be a potent inhibitor of prostate cancer cells. It was synthesized using a model system and in vitro synthesis. 11b-Hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione also inhibits the production of growth factors by prostate cancer cells and blocks the synthesis of dinucleotide phosphate (DNP) which is required for DNA synthesis. This drug has been shown to have no effect on normal prostate tissue or urine samples from women with polycystic ovarian syndrome.
