Target Details for Dihydrotestosterone

Target: Dihydrotestosterone (DHT)

Alternative Name: Dihydrotestosterone (DHT Products)

Target Type: Hormone

Background: 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is a steroid similar to testosterone and androstenedione, which belong to a class called androgens. DHT is a C19 steroid and possesses androgenic activity. DHT has at least three times the binding affinity for sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) than testosterone. In males about 70 % of DHT is derived from peripheral conversion of testosterone, while in females most of the DHT is derived from androstenedione.
