Use | Used as a steroid hormone drug Intermediate |
In vitro study | 17α-OHP is a progesterone receptor agonist similar to progesterone, although less effective. It is also a chemical intermediate in the biosynthesis of steroid hormones such as androgens, estrogenic sex hormones, glucocorticoids, and mineralocorticoids. |
In vivo study | 17-Hydroxyprogesterone is a potent steroid inducer of GVBD (germ bleb rupture). |

Introduction | 17 α-hydroxyprogesterone, sometimes referred to as hydroxyprogesterone (English: hydroxyprogestin, OHP) is a kind of progesterone-like endogenous progesterone steroid hormone, but also many endogenous steroid hormone biosynthesis precursors, including androgen, estrogen, glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids and some neurosteroids. |
biological activity | 17-hydroxyprogestogen (17-OHP) is an endogenous progestogen that is a chemical intermediate in the biosynthesis of other steroid hormones. |
Use | intermediates of hydrocortisone, megestrol, progesterone caproate. as a steroid hormone drug intermediate A long-acting progestogen |
production method | can be used to open the ring, acetylation, oxidation, hydrolysis, epoxidation, oxidation, addition, it is prepared by catalytic hydrogenation and other steps. |
