NCIt definition : A halogenated derivative of 17-alpha-methyltestosterone. Similar to testosterone,
fluoxymesterone binds to and activates specific nuclear receptors, resulting in an
increase in protein anabolism, a decrease in amino acid catabolism, and retention
of nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus. This agent also may competitively inhibit
prolactin receptors and estrogen receptors, thereby inhibiting the growth of hormone-dependent
tumor lines. Fluoxymesterone is approximately five times more potent than methyltestosterone.
