Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Δ4-Abiraterone is an active metabolite of the CYP17A1 inhibitor Abiraterone. D4A is an androgen receptor antagonist that reduces expression of the androgen receptor target genes PSA, TMPRSS2, and FKBP5 in LNCaP, LAPC4, and C4-2 cell lines. It inhibits the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform CYP17A1 and blocks SRD5A conversion of Δ4-androstenedione to 5α-androstanedione in LAPC4 cells. In vivo, D4A delays tumor progression in a VCaP mouse xenograft model and increases progression-free survival in a C4-2 mouse xenograft model.
