The present disclosure relates to stereodefined polycyclic (e.g., tetracyclic) compounds that contain quaternary centers at one or multiple ring fusions, synthetic methods for preparing such compounds, and methods of using such compounds to treat a disease, such as a brain tumor and, particularly, a glioma.

The present invention relates to novel steroidal compounds of formula (I), process for preparation of the same and composition comprising these compounds. ##STR00001##

The present disclosure relates to polycyclic (e.g., tetracyclic) androgen receptor (AR) modulators, synthetic methods for preparing such AR modulators, and methods of using such AR modulators to treat an androgen-dependent condition, such as prostate cancer or BPH. Exemplary compounds have quaternary centers at C10 and C13 and a fused cyclic ring comprising C14 and C15.

The present invention provides a method of separating estrogen from placenta, which uses supercritical fluid technique to load the placenta powder of human body or sheep, pig, deer and other animals into an extraction tank. Under the operating conditions of preset pressure and temperature, supercritical solvent is added into the extraction tank to extract estrogen from placenta, so as to acquire de-estrogen placenta powder and placenta extract liquor. Under the same condition, the de-estrogen placenta extract liquor and supercritical solvent are added by a preset volume flow ratio into an adsorption tank. The estrogen in the placenta extract liquor is adsorbed by the adsorption tank to obtain de-estrogen placenta extract. It is then eluted with ethanol solution by gradient proportion to obtain purified natural estrogen.
