12 alpha-Hydroxyprogesterone(Cat No.:M010014) is a derivative of progesterone, a natural hormone involved in the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and embryogenesis. The addition of a hydroxyl group at the 12-alpha position modifies its biochemical activity and solubility compared to its parent compound, progesterone. This modification often impacts the hormone’s receptor binding affinity and metabolism. 12 alpha-Hydroxyprogesterone is studied for its potential biological effects and therapeutic applications, including its role in hormone replacement therapies and its possible use in treating hormonal disorders. Its distinct structure makes it a subject of interest in pharmacological and endocrinological research.
