Bioactivity | Izonsteride (Compound LY320236) is an inhibitor of 5α-reductase (IC50 = 11.6 nM for type I; 7.37 nM for type II). LY320236 inhibits the activity of steroid 5α-reductase, preventing the conversion of testosterone (T) to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). LY320236 can significantly inhibit the growth of LNCaP tumors in thymic mice without exhibiting obvious host toxicity[1]. |
