D006224 Cricetinae A subfamily in the family MURIDAE, comprising the hamsters. Four of the more common genera are Cricetus, CRICETULUS; MESOCRICETUS; and PHODOPUS. Cricetus,Hamsters,Hamster
D000273 Adipose Tissue Specialized connective tissue composed of fat cells (ADIPOCYTES). It is the site of stored FATS, usually in the form of TRIGLYCERIDES. In mammals, there are two types of adipose tissue, the WHITE FAT and the BROWN FAT. Their relative distributions vary in different species with most adipose tissue being white.

D000731 Androstanes The family of steroids from which the androgens are derived.
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013196 Dihydrotestosterone A potent androgenic metabolite of TESTOSTERONE. It is produced by the action of the enzyme 3-OXO-5-ALPHA-STEROID 4-DEHYDROGENASE. 5 alpha-Dihydrotestosterone,Androstanolone,Stanolone,17 beta-Hydroxy-5 beta-Androstan-3-One,17beta-Hydroxy-5alpha-Androstan-3-One,5 beta-Dihydrotestosterone,5-alpha Dihydrotestosterone,5-alpha-DHT,Anaprotin,Andractim,Dihydroepitestosterone,Gelovit,17 beta Hydroxy 5 beta Androstan 3 One,17beta Hydroxy 5alpha Androstan 3 One,5 alpha DHT,5 alpha Dihydrotestosterone,5 beta Dihydrotestosterone,Dihydrotestosterone, 5-alpha,beta-Hydroxy-5 beta-Androstan-3-One, 17
D015113 Androstane-3,17-diol The unspecified form of the steroid, normally a major metabolite of TESTOSTERONE with androgenic activity. It has been implicated as a regulator of gonadotropin secretion. 5 Androstane 3,17 diol,5 alpha-Androstane-3 alpha,17 beta-diol,5 alpha-Androstane-3 beta,17 alpha-diol,5 alpha-Androstane-3 beta,17 beta-diol,5 alpha-Androstane-3alpha,17 beta-diol,5 beta-Androstane-3 alpha,17 beta-diol,5-Androstane-3,17-diol,5alpha-Androstane-3beta,17alpha-diol,5 alpha Androstane 3 alpha,17 beta diol,5 alpha Androstane 3 beta,17 alpha diol,5 alpha Androstane 3 beta,17 beta diol,5 alpha Androstane 3alpha,17 beta diol,5 beta Androstane 3 alpha,17 beta diol,5alpha Androstane 3beta,17alpha diol,Androstane 3,17 diol
