Finasteride (Synonyms: MK-906)

Katalog-Nr.GC16248

Finasterid (MK-906) ist ein potenter und kompetitiver 5α-Reduktase-Inhibitor mit einem IC50-Wert von 4,2 nM fÜr Typ-II-5α-Reduktase. Finasterid hat eine ungefÄhr 100-mal grÖßere AffinitÄt fÜr das Enzym 5α-Reduktase vom Typ II als fÜr das Enzym vom Typ I. Finasterid kann zur Erforschung der benignen Prostatahyperplasie (BPH) und der androgenen Alopezie eingesetzt werden.

Description Chemical Properties Product Documents Related Products

Finasteride is an orally active testosterone 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor (Ki= 10 nM). Target: 5-alpha ReductaseApproved: 1992Finasteride, a synthetic 4-azasteroid antiandrogen compound, is a specific inhibitor of steroid Type II 5α-reductase, an intracellular enzyme that converts the androgen testosterone into 5α-dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Finasteride is used in the treatment of prostate cancer, benign prostatic hyperplasia, and androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness). In benign prostatic hyperplasia, finasteride inhibits 5alpha-reductase activity in epithelium for Ki of 10 nM, significantly lower than in stroma (Ki = 33nM) [1].
