Proprotein convertase 1, also known as prohormone convertase, prohormone convertase 3, or neuroendocrine convertase 1 and often abbreviated as PC1/3 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PCSK1 gene. [5] PCSK1 and PCSK2 differentially cleave proopiomelanocortin and they act together to process proinsulin and proglucagon in pancreatic ...
An androgen prohormone, or proandrogen, is a prohormone (or prodrug) of an anabolic-androgenic steroid (AAS). They can be prohormones of testosterone or of synthetic AAS, for example, nandrolone (19-nortestosterone). Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), DHEA sulfate (DHEA-S), and androstenedione may all be considered proandrogens of testosterone. [1]
N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP or BNPT) is a 76 amino acid long protein that is cleaved from the N-terminal end of the 108 amino acid long prohormone proBNP to release brain natriuretic peptide 32 (BNP, also known as B-type natriuretic peptide). [1] [2] [3] [4]
The Remington Model 887 Nitro Mag is a pump-action shotgun formerly manufactured by Remington Arms Company, Inc. It is noted for using a polymer finish called ArmorLokt, [ 1 ] which is designed to survive any type of weather condition and leaves no exterior surfaces to rust. [ 4 ]
The production rate of a steroid hormone refers to entry into the blood of the compound from all possible sources, including secretion from glands and conversion of prohormones into the steroid of interest. At steady state, the amount of hormone entering the blood from all sources will be equal to the rate at which it is being cleared ...
1-Androstenediol, or 5α-androst-1-ene-3β,17β-diol, also known as 4,5α-dihydro-δ 1-4-androstenediol, is a prohormone of 1-testosterone (Δ 1-DHT). [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It has been used as a dietary supplement , and is identified by the World Anti-Doping Agency as a prohibited substance related to anabolic steroids .
The following is a list of hormones found in Homo sapiens. Spelling is not uniform for many hormones. Spelling is not uniform for many hormones. For example, current North American and international usage uses [ citation needed ] estrogen and gonadotropin, while British usage retains the Greek digraph in oestrogen and favours the earlier ...
