Description

Androsterone glucuronide is a steroid hormone metabolite that is formed by the conjugation of androsterone with glucuronic acid. It is the major urinary excretion product of testosterone in humans. Androsterone glucuronide is synthesized in the liver and is excreted in the urine. It is a weak androgen and is not thought to have any significant biological activity. However, it is studied as a marker of androgen metabolism and as a potential biomarker for certain diseases, such as prostate cancer. The level of androsterone glucuronide in the urine can be affected by a number of factors, including age, sex, and health status. It is also studied as a potential biomarker for certain diseases, such as prostate cancer, as its levels can be affected by various factors such as age, sex, and health status.'
