Description: Etiocholanolone is an androgenically inactive metabolite of testosterone and androstenedione and the 5β epimer of androsterone. It increases the frequency of long channel openings and potentiates GABA-induced chloride currents in HEK293 cells expressing rat α1β2γ2L subunit-containing GABAA receptors when used at a concentration of 10 µM. Etiocholanolone is protective against seizures induced by 6 Hz electroshock or pentylenetetrazol (PTZ; ED50s = 76.9 and 139 mg/kg, respectively). It is also pyretic in an IL-1-dependent manner, inducing increases in body temperature in rhesus macaques but not squirrel monkeys that lack testosterone and androstenedione metabolizing enzymes.
