Part Description
LP14369-0 Androstanediol
Androstanediol is a metabolite of dihydrotestosterone, itself a metabolite of testosterone. Androstanediol is implicated in the regulation of gonadotropin secretion. As a metabolite of dihydroxytestosterone formed in the peripheral tissues, androstanediol and androstnediol-glucuronide can be used to estimate peripheral androgen activity. Androstanediol is a potential GABA (A) receptor-modulating neurosteroid with anticonvulsant properties and hence could act as a key neuromodulator in the central nervous system. It is considered that androstanediol has hedonic effects; therefore it is anticipated that androgens that are readily metabolized to androstanediol may have higher abuse potential than androgens that are not as easily metabolized to androstanediol. These results add to the growing literature indicating that athletes and non-athletes may be at considerable risk when they abuse androgens. PMID: 11500254, PMID: 16040068, PMID: 11744084.
