*Application
4-Androstenedione is further converted to either testosterone or estrogen.
In males, conversion of androstenedione to testosterone requires the enzyme 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase.
In females, androstenedione is released into the blood by theca cells. Conversion of androstenedione to estrogen (e.g., estrone and estradiol) requires the enzyme aromatase. Androstenedione is a substrate for estrogen production in granulosa cells which produce aromatase. Thus, theca cells and granulosa cells work together to form estrogens.
Used for simplified hormone drugs, from the testis or urine extracted with the role of a male hormone steroid, norethisterone, testosterone propionate in the middle body, is widely used in small rheumatoid arthritis, diuretic, and a variety of contraceptive to control infectious inflammation.
