Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Distinguish Шаблон:Drugbox

Boldenone (developmental code name RU-18761), is a naturally occurring anabolic–androgenic steroid (AAS) and the 1(2)-dehydrogenated analogue of testosterone.[1][2][3][4][5] Boldenone itself has never been marketed; as a pharmaceutical drug, it is used as boldenone undecylenate, the undecylenate ester.[1][2][5]

Pharmacology

Pharmacodynamics

Like other AAS, boldenone is an agonist of the androgen receptor (AR).[5] The activity of boldenone is mainly anabolic, with a low androgenic potency. Boldenone will increase nitrogen retention, protein synthesis, increases appetite and stimulates the release of erythropoietin in the kidneys.[6]

Chemistry

Boldenone, also known as Δ1-testosterone, 1-dehydrotestosterone, or androsta-1,4-dien-17β-ol-3-one, is a naturally occurring androstane steroid and a derivative of testosterone.[1][2][5] It is specifically testosterone with a double bond between the C1 and C2 positions.[1][2][5] A related compound is quinbolone, the 17-cyclopentenyl enol ether of boldenone.[1][2]

Sources

Boldenone occurs naturally in the scent gland of Ilybius fenestratus, a species of aquatic beetle.[1]

History

Ciba reportedly patented boldenone in 1949.[5] It subsequently developed several experimental esters of the drug in the 1950s and 1960s.[5] One of these was boldenone undecylenate, which was introduced for clinical use under the brand name Parenabol and saw some use in the late 1960s and early 1970s.[5] However, it was discontinued before the end of the 1970s.[5] Subsequently, boldenone undecylenate was introduced by Squibb under the brand name Equipose for veterinary use, most commonly in horses.[5]
