Androstenediol Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

WHITE CRYSTALLINE POWDER

Uses

Androstenediol is used for weight training and recovery, and to increase testosterone production and stamina.

Definition

ChEBI: A 3beta-hydroxy steroid that is 3beta-hydroxyandrost-5-ene carrying an additional hydroxy group at position 17beta.

Enzyme inhibitor

This sterol (FW = 290.45 g/mol), also referred to simply as androstenediol, is a metabolite of dehydroepiandrosterone (prasterone) isolated independently in the laboratories of Butenandt and Ruzicka, who were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1939. Target(s): glucose-6- phosphate dehydrogenase; steroid 16a-monooxygenase; 17b hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, also alternative substrate; 17- ketosteroid reductase; estrone sulfotransferase.
