Product Details: 4-Andro (Transdermal Liquid Form)
4-Andro, also known as 4-DHEA, is a laboratory compound derived from dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). This compound is classified as a positional isomer of DHEA. Because its structure is slightly different, it may behave differently in controlled studies. Research has reported variations in receptor interaction and signaling activity when compared with standard DHEA compounds.
Mechanism of Action
4-Andro is studied as a precursor compound in biochemical systems. In experimental conditions, it may undergo enzymatic conversion through pathways involving enzymes such as 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase.
Following this conversion, resulting metabolites may interact with androgen receptors located in certain cell types. These interactions are associated with signaling pathways that are linked to protein regulation and cellular function in preclinical studies.
