WHAT DOES STEROIDOGENESIS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Steroid

A steroid is a type of organic compound that contains a characteristic arrangement of four cycloalkane rings joined to one another. Examples of steroids include the dietary lipid cholesterol, the sex hormones estradiol and testosterone,:10–19 bile acids, and drugs such as the anti-inflammatory agent dexamethasone. The steroid core is composed of seventeen carbon atoms bonded together in the form of four fused rings: three cyclohexane rings and one cyclopentane ring. Individual steroids vary, first and primarily, by the oxidation state of the carbon atoms in the rings and by the chains and functional groups attached to this four-ring system; second, steroids can vary more markedly via changes to the ring structure. Sterols are a particularly important form of steroids, with sterols having a cholestane-derived framework and an hydroxyl group at the C-3 ring position being the most prominent. Hundreds of distinct steroids are found in animals, fungi, plants, and elsewhere. All natural steroids are made in living cells, either from the sterol lanosterol or from cycloartenol. Both lanosterol and cycloartenol are derived via cyclization of the triterpenoid squalene.
