LGD-4033, also known as  Ligandrol, is an investigational selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) currently being studied for its potential to treat conditions such as muscle wasting and osteoporosis.

Buy LGD-4033 from Loti Labs, your trusted source for research liquids. It is sold in liquid form in 10 mg per ml vials and is intended as a research chemical, not for human consumption.

WHAT IS LGD-4033 (LIGANDROL)

LGD-4033 is a novel nonsteroidal, oral SARM that binds to androgen receptors with high affinity and selectivity. 

In animal models, LGD-4033 has demonstrated anabolic activity in the muscle, anti-resorptive and anabolic activity in bone, and a robust selectivity for muscle versus prostate.

Unlike anabolic androgenic steroids, selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs) have tissue-selective activities. They express anabolic effects in the bone and muscle tissues without causing androgenic side effects such as acne and prostate enlargement.

STRUCTURE OF LGD-4033 (LIGANDROL)

IUPAC Name: 4-[(2R)-2-[(1R)-2,2,2-trifluoro-1-hydroxyethyl]pyrrolidin-1-yl]-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile

Molecular Formula: C₁₄H₁₂F₆N₂O

Molecular weight: 338.25 g/mol

CAS number: 1165910-22-4

MECHANISM OF ACTION

LGD-4033 acts as a ligand that enters the cell by diffusion and attaches to the androgen receptor in the cytoplasm, forming a receptor/ligand complex that translocates to the nucleus, where it binds the DNA and acts as a transcriptional regulator of androgen-responsive genes.

It causes dose-dependent suppression of total testosterone, sex hormone–binding globulin, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglyceride levels after administration. Follicle-stimulating hormone and free testosterone showed significant suppression at 1 mg dose only.

LGD-4033 has a prolonged elimination half-life (24–36 hours).

LGD-4033 (LIGANDROL) EFFECTS
