Dehydroandrosterone

Index Dehydroandrosterone

Dehydroandrosterone (DHA), or 5-dehydroandrosterone (5-DHA), also known as isoandrostenolone, as well as androst-5-en-3α-ol-17-one, is an endogenous androgen steroid hormone. [1]

Adrenal gland

The adrenal glands (also known as suprarenal glands) are endocrine glands that produce a variety of hormones including adrenaline and the steroids aldosterone and cortisol.

See Dehydroandrosterone and Adrenal gland

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. Dehydroandrosterone and androgen are Anabolic–androgenic steroids, hormones of the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonad axis and Sex hormones.

See Dehydroandrosterone and Androgen

Androstenediol

Androstenediol, or 5-androstenediol (abbreviated as A5 or Δ5-diol), also known as androst-5-ene-3β,17β-diol, is an endogenous weak androgen and estrogen steroid hormone and intermediate in the biosynthesis of testosterone from dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). Dehydroandrosterone and Androstenediol are Anabolic–androgenic steroids and Androstanes.

See Dehydroandrosterone and Androstenediol

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). Dehydroandrosterone and Androstenedione are Anabolic–androgenic steroids and Androstanes.

See Dehydroandrosterone and Androstenedione

Androsterone

Androsterone, or 3α-hydroxy-5α-androstan-17-one, is an endogenous steroid hormone, neurosteroid, and putative pheromone. Dehydroandrosterone and Androsterone are Anabolic–androgenic steroids and Androstanes.

See Dehydroandrosterone and Androsterone

Dehydroepiandrosterone

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), also known as androstenolone, is an endogenous steroid hormone precursor. Dehydroandrosterone and Dehydroepiandrosterone are Anabolic–androgenic steroids, Androstanes, hormones of the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonad axis and Sex hormones.

See Dehydroandrosterone and Dehydroepiandrosterone

Dehydrogenation

In chemistry, dehydrogenation is a chemical reaction that involves the removal of hydrogen, usually from an organic molecule.

See Dehydroandrosterone and Dehydrogenation

Endogeny (biology)

Endogenous substances and processes are those that originate from within a living system such as an organism, tissue, or cell.

See Dehydroandrosterone and Endogeny (biology)

Epiandrosterone

Epiandrosterone, or isoandrosterone, also known as 3β-androsterone, 3β-hydroxy-5α-androstan-17-one, or 5α-androstan-3β-ol-17-one, is a steroid hormone with weak androgenic activity. Dehydroandrosterone and Epiandrosterone are Anabolic–androgenic steroids and Androstanes.

See Dehydroandrosterone and Epiandrosterone

Epimer

In stereochemistry, an epimer is one of a pair of diastereomers.

See Dehydroandrosterone and Epimer

Steroid hormone

A steroid hormone is a steroid that acts as a hormone.

See Dehydroandrosterone and Steroid hormone

Structural analog

A structural analog, also known as a chemical analog or simply an analog, is a compound having a structure similar to that of another compound, but differing from it in respect to a certain component.

See Dehydroandrosterone and Structural analog

3α-Androstanediol

3α-Androstanediol also known as 5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol and sometimes shortened in the literature to 3α-diol, is an endogenous steroid hormone and neurosteroid and a metabolite of androgens like dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Dehydroandrosterone and 3α-Androstanediol are Anabolic–androgenic steroids and Androstanes.

See Dehydroandrosterone and 3α-Androstanediol

5α-Reductase

5α-Reductases, also known as 3-oxo-5α-steroid 4-dehydrogenases, are enzymes involved in steroid metabolism.
