doi: 10.3390/molecules26051354
Figure Lengend Snippet: Proposed metabolism of methyltestosterone (black, 18 ) and metandienone (red, 12 ) to the found metabolites 17α-hydroxymethyl-17β-methyl-18-nor-5β-androst-13-en-3α-ol ( 8 ), 17α-hydroxymethyl-17β-methyl-18-nor-5α-androst-13-en-3α-ol ( 8a ), and 17β-methyl-5β-androstane-3α,17α-diol ( 11 ) except last step of metandienone. The question marks represent reactions whose enzymes have not been elucidated yet.
Article Snippet: 17β-Methyltestosterone (epi-MT, 9 ) was obtained from Santa Cruz Biotechnology (Heidelberg, Germany).
