Nandrolone

Steroids - Systemic

Description

Nandrolone is an anabolic steroid used to treat anemia, osteoporosis and other conditions. It's a synthetic version of testosterone. Some athletes use nandrolone to build muscle,

Mechanism of action

Nandrolone is brought into cells by receptor mediated endocytosis, where it interacts with the androgen receptor. After binding to the androgen receptor, a conformational change occurs, the androgen receptor enters the nucleus, dimerizes, and can then bind to segments of DNA to regulate transcription.It preferentially stimulates growth of skeletal muscle and lean body mass that may provide benefit in reducing components of metabolic syndrome.
