Desogestrel (CAS 54024-22-5)
QUICK LINKS
Desogestrel is a compound of interest in the field of biochemistry and endocrinology, where it is the subject of research on its interactions with various steroid hormone receptors. Its structure allows for the binding to progesterone receptors, and studies often explore its affinity and selectivity for these receptors in various tissues. Research on Desogestrel also involves investigating its metabolism and the subsequent formation of active metabolites, which are important for understanding its biological effects on a molecular level. Additionally, Desogestrel′s role in the regulation of gene expression is a key area of investigation, particularly in relation to proteins involved in reproductive processes. The compound is frequently used as a reference in studies examining the biological activities of synthetic progestins. Moreover, researchers are interested in its effects on lipid metabolism and how it influences the synthesis and breakdown of different lipid molecules within cells.
