Entry term(s) agonista de los receptores de andrógenos
andrógeno
efecto androgénico
Scope note: Compuestos que interactúan con los RECEPTORES DE ANDRÓGENOS de los tejidos en los que actúan y tienen efectos similares a los de la TESTOSTERONA. Dependiendo de los tejidos, los andrógenos pueden afectar a la DIFERENCIACIÓN SEXUAL, los órganos reproductores masculinos, la ESPERMATOGÉNESIS, las CARACTERÍSTICAS SEXUALES secundarias masculinas, la LIBIDO o el desarrollo de la masa, la fuerza y la potencia de los músculos.

Scope note: Compounds that interact with ANDROGEN RECEPTORS in target tissues to bring about the effects similar to those of TESTOSTERONE. Depending on the target tissues, androgenic effects can be on SEX DIFFERENTIATION; male reproductive organs, SPERMATOGENESIS; secondary male SEX CHARACTERISTICS; LIBIDO; development of muscle mass, strength, and power.
