描述
19-hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione, also known as 19-haed, belongs to androgens and derivatives class of compounds. Those are 3-hydroxylated C19 steroid hormones. They are known to favor the development of masculine characteristics. They also show profound effects on scalp and body hair in humans. Thus, 19-hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione is considered to be a steroid lipid molecule. 19-hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak acidic compound (based on its pKa). 19-hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione can be found in a number of food items such as red huckleberry, chinese chestnut, mustard spinach, and komatsuna, which makes 19-hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. 19-hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione can be found primarily in blood, as well as in human placenta and testes tissues. In humans, 19-hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione is involved in a couple of metabolic pathways, which include androgen and estrogen metabolism and androstenedione metabolism. 19-hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione is also involved in a couple of metabolic disorders, which include 17-beta hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase III deficiency and aromatase deficiency. Moreover, 19-hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione is found to be associated with cushing's Syndrome.
