Androsterone
Androsterone, a testosterone metabolite, is a potent endogenous agonist of the Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR) . This activity makes it a valuable research tool for investigating FXR-mediated pathways in metabolic regulation, including studies in both in vitro assays and in vivo models of liver and metabolic diseases.
