965-93-5 Usage
Description
Methyltrienolone is an orally active anabolic-androgen steroid being a 17α-alkylated nandrolone (19-nortestosterone) derivative. It is not sold as a prescription drug and a dietary supplement due to its strong androgenic side effects and liver toxicity. However, it is often used as the reference point for in vitro biological activity for biochemical studies. It can bind strongly to the androgen receptor and can be used as an affinity label of the androgen receptor in the prostate and in prostatic tumors.
Chemical Properties
Pale Yellow Solid
Definition
ChEBI: A synthetic non-aromatisable androgen and anabolic steroid. It binds strongly to the androgen receptor and has therefore also been used as an affinity label for this receptor in the prostate and in prostatic tumors.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Androgen receptors (ARs) are nuclear hormone receptors/transcription factors. R1881, also known as methyltrienolone, is a synthetic androgen. It is the gold standard AR agonist.

Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 965-93-5 includes 6 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 3 digits, 9,6 and 5 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 9 and 3 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 965-93:
(5*9)+(4*6)+(3*5)+(2*9)+(1*3)=105
105 % 10 = 5
So 965-93-5 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
