5α-Androstane-3α,17β-diol (dihydroandrosterone) is a testosterone metabolite. Dihyroandrosterone inhibited the cell growth of seven cancer cell lines while showing weak toxicity on normal cell lines.

Concentrations of testosterone, progesterone, Delta4-androstenedione, dihydrotestosterone, 11-ketotestosterone, estrone, estradiol-17beta, 5alpha-androstane, 3alpha, 17beta-diol, and 17alpha-hydroxy, 20beta-dihydroprogesterone were determined by radioimmunoassays in the blood plasma and testicular homogenates of Scyliorhinus canicula. Samples were collected almost every month for 27 months. The weights

The abuse of anabolic-androgenic steroids (AS) is a growing problem; however, the effects and mechanisms underlying their addictive effects are not well understood. Research findings regarding androgen abuse in people and hedonic effects of androgens in laboratory rats are reviewed.

In this paper, a convenient and self-assembled hollow fiber solvent-stir bar microextraction (HF-SSBME) device was developed, which could stir by itself. In the extraction process, the proposed device made the solvent "bar" not floating at the sample solution and exposing
This study investigated the antineoplasic potential of a new family of aminosteroids. The antiproliferative activity of seven 5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol derivatives selected from a screening study was measured on nine cancerous cell lines (HL-60, K-562, LNCaP, PC-3, Shionogi, MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, BT-20, and
Certain androstane steroids (AS) modulate ionotropic receptors, as do the pregnane steroids. Whereas women produce significant amounts of neuroactive progesterone metabolites, the steroid neuromodulators in men originate mainly from the 3-oxo-4-ene C(19)-steroids, which are converted to their 3alpha- and 3beta-hydroxy-5alpha/5beta-reduced
