:3β-Hydroxyandrost-4-en-17-one
Description:
3β-Hydroxyandrost-4-en-17-one, commonly known as androstenedione, is a steroid hormone that plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of androgens and estrogens. It is characterized by its structure, which includes a steroid backbone with a hydroxyl group at the 3β position and a double bond between carbons 4 and 5. This compound is typically found in the adrenal glands and gonads and is involved in various physiological processes, including the regulation of sexual development and reproductive functions. Androstenedione is a precursor to testosterone and estrone, making it significant in both male and female hormone production. It is a white to off-white crystalline powder, soluble in organic solvents but less so in water. Due to its role in hormone synthesis, it has been studied for its potential effects on athletic performance and muscle growth, although its use in sports is often banned. Additionally, it has implications in medical research related to hormonal imbalances and certain endocrine disorders.

CAS:Controlled Product<p>3β-Hydroxy-4-androstenone is a hormone that has been shown to have a role in pregnancy. 3β-Hydroxy-4-androstenone is synthesized in the cytoplasm and then secreted into the blood, where it binds to progesterone receptors and produces a variety of effects. This hormone is found in women with preeclampsia, which is characterized by high blood pressure and protein in the urine after 20 weeks of gestation. 3β-Hydroxy-4-androstenone has also been shown to be produced by cells of the immune system and other tissues such as bone marrow, skin, breast tissue, and prostate gland. It has been shown that 3β-hydroxy-4-androstenone increases estradiol production by paracrine signaling on ovarian granulosa cells. The levels of this hormone increase during pregnancies with uncomplicated course.</p>Formula:C19H28O2Purity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:288.4 g/mol
