8,11-Eicosadiynoic acid

Catalog No.: A69130
Steroid 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
8,11-Eicosadiynoic acid is a steroid 5α-reductase inhibitor that exhibits potent biological activity in the modulation of androgen metabolism. This unsaturated fatty acid is primarily utilized in research related to acne and other androgen-mediated conditions. Its ability to inhibit 5α-reductase makes it a valuable tool for investigating pathways involved in sebaceous gland function and acne pathology.
