Estratetraenol

Index Estratetraenol

Estratetraenol, also known as estra-1,3,5(10),16-tetraen-3-ol, is an endogenous steroid found in women that has been described as having pheromone-like activities in primates, including humans. [1]

Androstadienone

Androstadienone, or androsta-4,16-dien-3-one, is a 16-androstene class endogenous steroid that has been described as having potent pheromone-like activities in humans. Estratetraenol and Androstadienone are Cyclopentenes, human pheromones, Mammalian pheromones and Neurosteroids.

See Estratetraenol and Androstadienone

Aromatase

Aromatase, also called estrogen synthetase or estrogen synthase, is an enzyme responsible for a key step in the biosynthesis of estrogens.

See Estratetraenol and Aromatase

Biosynthesis

Biosynthesis, i.e., chemical synthesis occuring in biological contexts, is a term most often referring to multi-step, enzyme-catalyzed processes where chemical substances absorbed as nutrients (or previously converted through biosynthesis) serve as enzyme substrates, with conversion by the living organism either into simpler or more complex products.

See Estratetraenol and Biosynthesis

Double bond

In chemistry, a double bond is a covalent bond between two atoms involving four bonding electrons as opposed to two in a single bond.

See Estratetraenol and Double bond

Endogeny (biology)

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

See Estratetraenol and Endogeny (biology)

Estradiol

Estradiol (E2), also spelled oestradiol, is an estrogen steroid hormone and the major female sex hormone. Estratetraenol and Estradiol are Estranes.

See Estratetraenol and Estradiol

Estrane

Estrane is a C18 steroid derivative, with a gonane core. Estratetraenol and Estrane are Estranes.

See Estratetraenol and Estrane

Estrogen

Estrogen (oestrogen; see spelling differences) is a category of sex hormone responsible for the development and regulation of the female reproductive system and secondary sex characteristics. Estratetraenol and Estrogen are Estranes.

See Estratetraenol and Estrogen

Hydroxy group

In chemistry, a hydroxy or hydroxyl group is a functional group with the chemical formula and composed of one oxygen atom covalently bonded to one hydrogen atom.

See Estratetraenol and Hydroxy group

Ovary

The ovary is a gonad in the female reproductive system that produces ova.

See Estratetraenol and Ovary

Pheromone

A pheromone is a secreted or excreted chemical factor that triggers a social response in members of the same species.

See Estratetraenol and Pheromone

Sex hormone

Sex hormones, also known as sex steroids, gonadocorticoids and gonadal steroids, are steroid hormones that interact with vertebrate steroid hormone receptors.

See Estratetraenol and Sex hormone

Steroid

A steroid is an organic compound with four fused rings (designated A, B, C, and D) arranged in a specific molecular configuration.

See Estratetraenol and Steroid

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 Estratetraenol and Structural analog

Woman

A woman is an adult female human.
