Beschreibung

Testosterone is a steroid hormone that is produced in the ovaries and testes. It stimulates the development of male secondary sex characteristics, such as muscle growth and deepening of the voice. 17-epi-Testosterone is a metabolite of testosterone that has been shown to inhibit iron homeostasis and epithelial growth factor production in vitro. The concentration of 17-epi-Testosterone in human serum was found to be significantly lower than the concentration of testosterone using an LC-MS/MS method, which may be due to its affinity for binding proteins or its degradation by liver cells. 17-epi-Testosterone can be used as a marker for hepatocellular carcinoma.
