Deuterated analogs of pregnenolone and pregnenolone sulfate with three atoms of deuterium in position 19 were prepared. The synthetic approach was developed on derivatives of dehydroepiandrosterone, where initial intermediates were well characterized, and then applied to the pregnenolone series. Starting

The aim of this paper was the analysis of five androstane isomers by thin-layer chromatography (TLC). The choice of proper mobile phase and the optimization of the mobile phase composition are very important because the chromatographic separation is difficult to
Seminal plasma of mammalians contains, among others, proteins that are characterized by the fibronectin (Fn) type II module. Our knowledge about the structure and the physiological function of seminal Fn type II proteins mainly originates from studies on PDC-109, the
Despite exhibiting histological differences from the human process, canine hormone-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is still the most widely used animal model for evaluating treatment strategies. The aim of this study is to determine the optimal moment for starting a

A number of 17-oxo-5-androsten-3β-yl esters (9a-9f) and 3β-alkoxy-5-androsten-17-ones (11a-11e) were synthesized from commercially available (25R)-5-spirosten-3β-ol (Diosgenin) (4) as starting material. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antiproliferative activity against the prostate-specific cancer cell line DU-145, acute toxicity and effect
