Eubacterium sp. 144 biotransformed 16-dehydroprogesterone by initially hydrating approx 50% to 16 alpha-hydroxyprogesterone. The detection of this reaction was dependent, in part, on the solubility state of 16-dehydroprogesterone and was less extensive when the concentration of methanol was insufficient to
Comparison of the cardiotonic response of ouabain, androstan-3-one, 16-dehydroprogesterone, and conjugated estrogens.

Suspensions of Eubacterium sp. strain 144, prepared from cells grown with 16-dehydroprogesterone, catalyzed the reduction of this steroid to 17-isoprogesterone at a very low rate. Modifications of the assay to optimize the pH (5.5) and increase the steroid solubility (10%

Four different methods of isolation and purification were utilized to study steroids in urine of male newborns which was collected during the first 5 days of life. These methods included celite column, ion exchange column and thin-layer chromatography, solvolysis and

In this study, the antileukemic effects of three isomeric pregnadienedione steroids [i.e., cis-guggulsterone, trans-guggulsterone, and 16-dehydroprogesterone] were investigated in HL60 and U937 cells as well as in primary leukemic blasts in culture. Our results show that all three compounds inhibited
