Bezisterim (NE3107) is an analog of androstenetriol that is believed to have anti-inflammatory and insulin-sensitizing effects in the brain. The compound crosses the blood-brain barrier and does not activate any neurotransmitter receptors.^[1] It has been tested as a treatment for Alzheimer's disease^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5] and traumatic brain injury.^[6]
