Steroids in Porifera. II. Steroid derivatives from two sponges of the family Halichondriidae. Sokotrasterol sulfate, a marine steroid with a new pattern of side chain alkylation.

abstract：:Saturation analysis of the binding of [3H]dexamethasone [( 3H]DEX) to ammonium sulfate precipitates (ASPs) confirmed the presence of a limited-capacity, high-affinity binder in human adipose tissue cytosols. Various non-radioactive steroids competed with [3H]DEX for binding to the ASPs in the following sequence: dexam...
