Description

Biochem/physiol Actions

4-Androstenedione, commonly known as Androstenedione, is an endogenous androgen steroid hormone. 4-Androstenedione functions as an intermediate in the biosynthesis of testosterone, estradiol and estrone. Recent studies indicate that 4-Androstenedione is involved in aromatase inhibitors induce painful musculoskeletal symptoms (AIMSS) by activation of TRPA1.

Testosterone precursor and metabolite with androgenic activity; may increase the risk of prostate or pancreatic cancer.
