Bolandione

Index Bolandione

Bolandione, also known as 19-norandrostenedione, as well as 19-norandrost-4-en-3,17-dione or estr-4-ene-3,17-dione, is a precursor of the anabolic-androgenic steroid (AAS) nandrolone (19-nortestosterone). [1]

Anabolic steroid

Anabolic steroids, also known as anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS), are a class of drugs that are structurally related to testosterone, the main male sex hormone, and produce effects by binding to the androgen receptor (AR). Bolandione and anabolic steroid are Anabolic–androgenic steroids.

See Bolandione and Anabolic steroid

Androgen

An androgen (from Greek andr-, the stem of the word meaning "man") is any natural or synthetic steroid hormone that regulates the development and maintenance of male characteristics in vertebrates by binding to androgen receptors. Bolandione and androgen are Anabolic–androgenic steroids.

See Bolandione and Androgen

Androgen receptor

The androgen receptor (AR), also known as NR3C4 (nuclear receptor subfamily 3, group C, member 4), is a type of nuclear receptor that is activated by binding any of the androgenic hormones, including testosterone and dihydrotestosterone, in the cytoplasm and then translocating into the nucleus.

See Bolandione and Androgen receptor

Androstenedione

Androstenedione, or 4-androstenedione (abbreviated as A4 or Δ4-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). Bolandione and Androstenedione are Anabolic–androgenic steroids, Diketones and Estrogens.

See Bolandione and Androstenedione

Castration

Castration is any action, surgical, chemical, or otherwise, by which a male loses use of the testicles: the male gonad.

See Bolandione and Castration

Dihydrotestosterone

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT, 5α-dihydrotestosterone, 5α-DHT, androstanolone or stanolone) is an endogenous androgen sex steroid and hormone primarily involved in the growth and repair of the prostate and the penis, as well as the production of sebum and body hair composition. Bolandione and Dihydrotestosterone are Anabolic–androgenic steroids.

See Bolandione and Dihydrotestosterone

Doping in sport

In competitive sports, doping is the use of banned athletic performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs) by athletic competitors, as a way of cheating.

See Bolandione and Doping in sport

Levator ani

The levator ani is a broad, thin muscle group, situated on either side of the pelvis.

See Bolandione and Levator ani

List of androgens and anabolic steroids

This is a list of androgens/anabolic steroids (AAS) or testosterone derivatives. Bolandione and list of androgens and anabolic steroids are Anabolic–androgenic steroids.

See Bolandione and List of androgens and anabolic steroids

Nandrolone

Nandrolone, also known as 19-nortestosterone, is an endogenous androgen which exists in the male body at a ratio of 1:50 compared to testosterone. Bolandione and Nandrolone are Anabolic–androgenic steroids, Estranes, Estrogens and Progestogens.

See Bolandione and Nandrolone

Olympic Games

The modern Olympic Games or Olympics (Jeux olympiques) are the leading international sporting events featuring summer and winter sports competitions in which thousands of athletes from around the world participate in a variety of competitions.

See Bolandione and Olympic Games

Oral administration

| name.

See Bolandione and Oral administration

Precursor (chemistry)

In chemistry, a precursor is a compound that participates in a chemical reaction that produces another compound.

See Bolandione and Precursor (chemistry)

Prohormone

A prohormone is a committed precursor of a hormone consisting of peptide hormones synthesized together that has a minimal hormonal effect by itself because of its expression-suppressing structure, often created by protein folding and binding additional peptide chains to certain ends, that makes hormone receptor binding sites located on its peptide hormone chain segments inaccessible.

See Bolandione and Prohormone

Prostate

The prostate is both an accessory gland of the male reproductive system and a muscle-driven mechanical switch between urination and ejaculation.

See Bolandione and Prostate

Randomized controlled trial

A randomized controlled trial (or randomized control trial; RCT) is a form of scientific experiment used to control factors not under direct experimental control.

See Bolandione and Randomized controlled trial

Skeletal muscle

Skeletal muscle (commonly referred to as muscle) is one of the three types of vertebrate muscle tissue, the other being cardiac muscle and smooth muscle.

See Bolandione and Skeletal muscle

Subcutaneous administration

Subcutaneous administration is the insertion of medications beneath the skin either by injection or infusion.

See Bolandione and Subcutaneous administration

Transactivation

In the context of gene regulation: transactivation is the increased rate of gene expression triggered either by biological processes or by artificial means, through the expression of an intermediate transactivator protein.

See Bolandione and Transactivation

World Anti-Doping Agency

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA; Agence mondiale antidopage, AMA) is a foundation initiated by the International Olympic Committee based in Canada to promote, coordinate, and monitor the fight against drugs in sports.

See Bolandione and World Anti-Doping Agency

19-Norandrosterone

19-Norandrosterone, also known as 5α-estran-3α-ol-17-one, is a metabolite of nandrolone (19-nortestosterone) and bolandione (19-norandrostenedione) that is formed by 5α-reductase. Bolandione and 19-Norandrosterone are Anabolic–androgenic steroids and Estranes.

See Bolandione and 19-Norandrosterone
