Common NameEtiocholanedione
DescriptionEtiocholanedione is a steroid hormone belonging to the chemical class of androgens. Its chemical structure is characterized by a steroid nucleus with a ketone group at the 3-position, derived from the metabolism of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). In biological pathways, etiocholanedione is involved in steroidogenesis and can be formed from the conversion of DHEA, influencing various physiological processes. Research indicates that etiocholanedione does not modulate GABA receptor activity at concentrations up to 50 μM, suggesting a selective action in the central nervous system (PMID:32265652 ). Additionally, a randomized double-blind crossover study has demonstrated the antiobesity effects of etiocholanedione, showing that it is nontoxic and beneficial when administered orally in animal models (PMID:16353603 ). These findings highlight its potential role in metabolic regulation, although further research is needed to elucidate its mechanisms of action and therapeutic applications.
