Metabolism of 17 alpha-methyltestosterone in the rabbit: C-6 and C-16 hydroxylated metabolites. 1983

J F Templeton, and C C Jackson

17 alpha-Methyltestosterone and the reduced metabolites, 17 alpha-methyl-5 alpha-androstane-3 alpha, 17 beta-diol, 17 alpha-methyl-5 alpha-androstane-3 beta, 17 beta-diol and 17 alpha-methyl-5 beta-androstane-3 alpha, 17 beta-diol, together with three hydroxylated metabolites, 17 alpha-methyl-5 beta-androstane-3 alpha, 16 alpha, 17 beta-triol, 17 alpha-methyl-5 beta-androstane-3 alpha, 16 beta, 17 beta-triol and a new metabolite, 17 alpha-methyl-5 alpha-androstane-3 beta, 6 alpha, 17 beta-triol, were isolated and identified in the urine of rabbits dosed with 17 alpha-methyltestosterone. No hydroxylated 5 alpha-metabolite of 17 alpha-methyltestosterone has been identified previously. No of 17 alpha-methyltestosterone has been identified previously. No evidence for epimerization at the C-17 position was observed.

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.

D001711	Biotransformation	The chemical alteration of an exogenous substance by or in a biological system. The alteration may inactivate the compound or it may result in the production of an active metabolite of an inactive parent compound. The alterations may be divided into METABOLIC DETOXICATION, PHASE I and METABOLIC DETOXICATION, PHASE II.
