CAS 50-23-7: Cortisol

Description: Cortisol, with the CAS number 50-23-7, is a steroid hormone produced by the adrenal cortex in response to stress and low blood glucose levels. It plays a crucial role in various physiological processes, including metabolism, immune response regulation, and the maintenance of homeostasis. Cortisol is classified as a glucocorticoid, which means it influences glucose metabolism and has anti-inflammatory effects. Its chemical formula is C21H30O5, and it has a complex structure characterized by four fused carbon rings typical of steroid compounds. Cortisol is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. It is involved in the body's fight-or-flight response, helping to mobilize energy stores and modulate immune function. Dysregulation of cortisol levels can lead to various health issues, including Cushing's syndrome, characterized by excessive cortisol, or Addison's disease, marked by insufficient production. Due to its significant biological effects, cortisol is also used therapeutically in various medical conditions, particularly for its anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties.
