Arimistane Capsules

Product Details

Arimistane is a synthetic compound classified as an aromatase-interacting agent and is structurally related to metabolites derived from 7-keto DHEA. It is utilized in controlled research environments for the study of enzymatic activity associated with steroidogenesis pathways.

Within laboratory settings, arimistane is examined for its interaction with enzymes involved in hormone biosynthesis. Its molecular structure supports investigation into enzyme-binding dynamics and pathway modulation at the biochemical level.

This compound is supplied strictly for laboratory research purposes and is not intended for consumption, medical, or diagnostic use.

Mechanism of Action

At the molecular level, arimistane is studied for its interaction with the aromatase enzyme, a cytochrome P450-associated protein responsible for catalyzing the conversion of androgenic substrates into estrogenic compounds.

Arimistane is characterized by its ability to bind to the active site of the aromatase enzyme, where it may form a stable interaction that alters enzymatic activity. This interaction is examined in vitro to evaluate how substrate conversion processes are affected within steroidogenic pathways.

Additionally, research focuses on how arimistane influences enzyme structure and catalytic function, including its interaction with the heme moiety located at the active site. These studies contribute to a broader understanding of enzyme inhibition mechanisms and pathway regulation under controlled experimental conditions.
