Buy wholesale Androstenedione 4-Androstene-3,17-dione,(4-AD) CAS NO. 63-05-8 : Acquire Androstenedione, also known as 4-Androstene-3,17-dione or 4-AD, in bulk quantities at competitive wholesale prices. The compound is identified by CAS Number 63-05-8. Androstenedione is an endogenous steroid hormone, recognized as a weak androgen and an important intermediate in the biosynthetic pathways that produce estrone and testosterone from dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). It is structurally related to androstenediol (androst-5-ene-3β,17β-diol).
Biological Role and Function of Androstenedione (4-AD)
Androstenedione serves as a crucial precursor to the synthesis of testosterone and other androgens, as well as estrogens such as estrone within the human body. Beyond its role as an endogenous prohormone, androstenedione exhibits mild androgenic activity. It is also noted for its weak estrogenic activity, although its affinity for estrogen receptors is extremely low, with less than 0.01% the affinity compared to estradiol for both estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) and estrogen receptor beta (ERβ).
Adrenarche and Androstenedione
During adrenarche, which typically occurs in children aged 6 to 8 years, there is a notable increase in androstenedione secretion alongside DHEA. This increase is believed to play a significant role in the development of social, cultural, and ecological skills, including the understanding and expression of sexual attraction. Additionally, androstenedione may influence aggression and competitive behavior in boys, with observed positive correlations, even though testosterone levels during this period are often undetectable.
