Product Information
| Description: | Pregnenolone 16α-carbonitrile is a derivative of pregnendione that functions as an agonist of the rodent pregnane X receptor (PXR). pregnenolone 16α-carbonitrile is a synthetic steroid that induces expression of cytochrome P450 3A. Pregnenolone 16α-carbonitrile exhibits greater tolerance to subsequent stress injury. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
