α-Cortolone
CAS:Controlled ProductApplications α-Cortolone is a human urinary metabolite of Cortisol ((H714615), a steroid hormone, more specifically a glucocorticoid, produced by the zona fasciculata of the adrenal gland. Cortisol is released in response to stress and a low level of blood glucocorticoids. Its primary functions are to increase blood sugar through gluconeogenesis; suppress the immune system; and aid in fat, protein and carbohydrate metabolism.

CAS:α-Cortolone, a metabolite of the glucocorticoid cortisol (hydrocortisone), is produced through the action of 20α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (20α-HSD) via a tetrahydrocortisone (THE) intermediate. Studies indicate that urinary levels of α-cortolone are reduced in patients experiencing severe anorexia nervosa and postmenopausal women diagnosed with endometrial adenocarcinoma, in comparison to postmenopausal women without the condition.Formula:C21H34O5Color and Shape:SolidMolecular weight:366.49Alpha-cortolone
CAS:Alpha-cortolone is a corticosteroid metabolite, which is a biochemically derived product from the metabolism of cortisol. It is produced in the body through the enzymatic reduction of cortisol, a hormone significantly involved in the stress response, metabolism, and immune function. The mode of action for alpha-cortolone primarily involves its role as a metabolite in the complex steroid hormone pathway. It can influence the regulation of various physiological functions due to its origin from cortisol.
