• Beschreibung: 11β-hydroxyprogesterone is a naturally occurring steroid hormone that is produced in the adrenal glands and the placenta. It is also a metabolite of progesterone. It has been found to have physiological levels in vitro and in cell culture experiments, where it has shown to stimulate epidermal growth factor (EGF) synthesis and inhibit protein transport. This hormone may be involved in women's reproductive cycle, as it has been found to have a stimulatory effect on the production of oestrogen by ovarian cells. 11β-hydroxyprogesterone is also used as an immunosuppressant drug (e.g., for treating rheumatoid arthritis). It inhibits the activity of bacterial enzymes such as hydroxylases and urease, which are required for bacterial growth. This drug has been found to be beneficial in treating polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) because it may improve ovulation rates and decrease testosterone levels.
