What is Anadrol?
Oxymetholone (Anadrol) is a 17α-methylated, 2-hydroxymethylene DHT derivative — one of the most potent oral anabolic steroids. Despite its DHT structure, oxymetholone does not bind AR directly with high affinity; its anabolic activity is mediated via non-AR pathways and possible ERα interaction. Research tool for non-classical AAS mechanism, erythropoiesis, and anemia research. Research use only.
Research Applications
Non-Classical AAS Mechanism
Low AR binding despite potent anabolism — alternative pathway (ER, IGF-1) research
Erythropoiesis Research
EPO-like red cell stimulation, haematocrit increase, aplastic anemia models
Androgen-Mediated Muscle Wasting
Oxymetholone anti-catabolic effects — muscle preservation in wasting disease models
17α-Methyl Hepatotoxicity
High-dose hepatic stress — DILI, cholestasis, peliosis hepatis histology
Appetite & GI Hormone Research
Oxymetholone-mediated appetite stimulation, ghrelin interaction, nutrient partitioning
