Androstanedione, also known as 5α-androstanedione or as 5α-androstane-3,17-dione, is a naturally occurring androstane (5α-androstane) steroid and an endogenous metabolite of androgens like testosterone, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), and androstenedione. [1] It is the C5 epimer of etiocholanedione (5β ...
Androstenedione, or 4-androstenedione (abbreviated as A4 or Δ 4-dione), also known as androst-4-ene-3,17-dione, is an endogenous weak androgen steroid hormone and intermediate in the biosynthesis of estrone and of testosterone from dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). It is closely related to androstenediol (androst-5-ene-3β,17β-diol).
5-Androstenedione, also known as androst-5-ene-3,17-dione, is a prohormone of testosterone. The World Anti-Doping Agency prohibits its use in athletes. In the United States, it is a controlled substance. 5-Androstenedione is structurally similar to 4-androstenedione, with the exception of the position of a carbon-carbon double bond.
Androstenedione: A4 [8] or AE [9] 4-androstene-3,17-dione 4-Hydroxyandrostenedione: 4-OH-A [3] 11β-Hydroxyandrostenedione: 11βOHA4 [10] or 11βOHΔ4 [11] or OHA [12]
Androstenediol, also known as androst-5-ene-3β,17β-diol, is a naturally occurring androstane steroid. [5] It is closely related structurally to androstenedione (A4; androst-4-ene-3,17-dione), dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA; androst-5-en-3β-ol-17-one), and testosterone (androst-4-en-17β-ol-3-one), as well as to 3β-androstanediol (5α-androstane-3β,17β-diol).
Androstenedione. Δ 4-Androstenedione (Δ 4-androsten-3,17-dione) – an endogenous androgen and testosterone intermediate; Δ 5-Androstenedione (Δ 5-androsten-3,17-dione) – an androgen and testosterone prodrug; Δ 1-Androstenedione (Δ 1-androsten-3,17-dione) – an androgen and δ 1-testosterone prodrug; Androstenetrione
1-Androstenedione, or 5α-androst-1-ene-3,17-dione, also known as 4,5α-dihydro-δ 1-4-androstenedione, is a synthetic androgen and anabolic steroid.It is a 5α-reduced isomer of the endogenous steroid 4-androstenedione and acts as an androgen prohormone of 1-testosterone (4,5α-dihydro-δ 1-testosterone), a derivative of dihydrotestosterone (DHT).
Androstadienedione is obtained in high yield from both plant and animal sterols by biotransformation. [1] The chemical is a common byproduct derived from other processes (e.g. vegetable oil deodorization and the production of lanolin from wool processing).
