Pregnenolone (CAS NO.145-13-1) is used for biochemical research. It is also used as steroid pharmaceutical intermediates and synthesis of steroid drugs.
Pregnenolone is made by cholesterol. This conversion involves hydroxylation at the side-chain at C20 and C22 positions, with cleavage of the side-chain. The enzyme performing this task is cytochrome P450scc, located in the mitochondria, and controlled by pituitary tropic hormones, such as ACTH, FSH, LH.
