Effects of the Dietary Supplement 5α‐Hydroxy‐Laxogenin in the Orchiectomized Rat Model

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
The dietary supplement ingredient 5α‐hydroxy‐laxogenin was investigated in the castrated male rat for potential androgenic and anabolic effects. Moreover, androgen receptor binding of 5α‐hydroxy‐laxogenin was modelled by in silico docking. While molecular modelling supports androgen receptor binding, we observed neither androgenic nor anabolic effects ...
