Synthesis, antifertility activity, and protein binding affinity of 7(8 leads to 11 alpha)abeo steroids. 1977

M C Wani, and D H Rector, and D H White, and C G Pitt, and G L Kimmel

A series of 7(8 leads to 11 alpha)abeo steroids was synthesized by a modification of the previously described total synthesis of this class of compounds and evaluated for biological activity. In general, there was a marked reduction in the relative binding affinities of these compounds for the rabbit uterus estrogen and progestin receptor proteins. None of the compounds which were subjected to uterotropic, antiuterotropic, postcoital, progestational, antiprogestational, or antiandrogenic assays showed any significant activity.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D011278 Pregnanes Saturated derivatives of the steroid pregnane. The 5-beta series includes PROGESTERONE and related hormones; the 5-alpha series includes forms generally excreted in the urine.
D011485 Protein Binding The process in which substances, either endogenous or exogenous, bind to proteins, peptides, enzymes, protein precursors, or allied compounds. Specific protein-binding measures are often used as assays in diagnostic assessments. Plasma Protein Binding Capacity,Binding, Protein
D011817 Rabbits A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.

D011960 Receptors, Estrogen Cytoplasmic proteins that bind estrogens and migrate to the nucleus where they regulate DNA transcription. Evaluation of the state of estrogen receptors in breast cancer patients has become clinically important.

D011980 Receptors, Progesterone Specific proteins found in or on cells of progesterone target tissues that specifically combine with progesterone. The cytosol progesterone-receptor complex then associates with the nucleic acids to initiate protein synthesis. There are two kinds of progesterone receptors, A and B. Both are induced by estrogen and have short half-lives.

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.
