The Synthesis of Novel 7, 19-Bifunctional Androstenediones as Aromatase Inhibitors
نویسندگان
چکیده
Both 7 and 19-substituted androstenediones exhibit good inhibitory activities against aromatase. The combination effects of those two functional groups were examined by comparing the activity of19-methylthiomethoxy-7-phenylthioandrost-4-en-3,17-dione (IC50591 nM) with 19methylthiomethoxy-androst-4,6-dien-3,17-dione (IC50389 nM). The addition of a 7-phenylthio functional group leads to a slight loss of inhibitory activity for this 7, 19-bifunctional androstenedione. These results indicate the relative location of the pharmacophores on C-19 and in the active center. The 7-position may not be compatible for the enhancement of inhibitory activity.

Change in sex ratios for broiler chickens, has many economic benefits of the poultry industry. The gonads in chick embryo at an early stage have the potential to convert to both sexes (male and female). Sexual differentiation is due to aromatase expression in the left gonad in 5-6 days of the embryonic period and the production of estrogen from testosterone. Administration of aromatase inhibito...
