21-O-Acetyl 6β-Hydroxy Cortisol

Description:
21-O-Acetyl 6β-Hydroxy Cortisol, with the CAS number 13096-53-2, is a synthetic derivative of cortisol, a steroid hormone produced by the adrenal cortex. This compound features an acetyl group at the 21-position and a hydroxyl group at the 6β-position, which alters its biological activity and pharmacokinetic properties compared to cortisol. It is characterized by its glucocorticoid activity, which can influence various physiological processes, including metabolism, immune response, and inflammation. The structural modifications enhance its stability and potency, making it useful in research and potential therapeutic applications. As a steroid, it is lipophilic, allowing it to easily cross cell membranes and bind to glucocorticoid receptors, thereby modulating gene expression. Its solubility and stability in different solvents can vary, impacting its formulation for pharmaceutical use. Safety and handling precautions are essential due to its biological activity, and it is typically handled in controlled laboratory environments.
