Dehydroepiandrosterone is an androstanoid that is androst-5-ene substituted by a beta-hydroxy group at position 3 and an oxo group at position 17. It is a naturally occurring steroid hormone produced by the adrenal glands. It has a role as an androgen, a mouse metabolite and a human metabolite. It is a 3beta-hydroxy-Delta(5)-steroid, a 17-oxo steroid and an androstanoid. — ChEBI
