11-Dehydrocorticosterone

Index 11-Dehydrocorticosterone

11-Dehydrocorticosterone (11-DHC), also known as 11-oxocorticosterone or 17-deoxycortisone, as well as 21-hydroxypregn-4-ene-3,11,20-trione, is a naturally occurring, endogenous corticosteroid related to cortisone and corticosterone. [1]

Corticosteroid

Corticosteroids are a class of steroid hormones that are produced in the adrenal cortex of vertebrates, as well as the synthetic analogues of these hormones.

See 11-Dehydrocorticosterone and Corticosteroid

Corticosterone

Corticosterone, also known as 17-deoxycortisol and 11β,21-dihydroxyprogesterone, is a 21-carbon steroid hormone of the corticosteroid type produced in the cortex of the adrenal glands. 11-Dehydrocorticosterone and Corticosterone are pregnanes.

See 11-Dehydrocorticosterone and Corticosterone

Cortisone

Cortisone is a pregnene (21-carbon) steroid hormone. 11-Dehydrocorticosterone and Cortisone are pregnanes and Triketones.

See 11-Dehydrocorticosterone and Cortisone

Endogeny (biology)

Endogenous substances and processes are those that originate from within a living system such as an organism, tissue, or cell.

See 11-Dehydrocorticosterone and Endogeny (biology)

Mineralocorticoid

Mineralocorticoids are a class of corticosteroids, which in turn are a class of steroid hormones. 11-Dehydrocorticosterone and Mineralocorticoid are mineralocorticoids.

See 11-Dehydrocorticosterone and Mineralocorticoid

Natural product

A natural product is a natural compound or substance produced by a living organism—that is, found in nature.

See 11-Dehydrocorticosterone and Natural product

11-Deoxycorticosterone

11-Deoxycorticosterone (DOC), or simply deoxycorticosterone, also known as 21-hydroxyprogesterone, as well as desoxycortone (INN), deoxycortone, and cortexone, is a steroid hormone produced by the adrenal gland that possesses mineralocorticoid activity and acts as a precursor to aldosterone. 11-Dehydrocorticosterone and 11-Deoxycorticosterone are mineralocorticoids and pregnanes.

See 11-Dehydrocorticosterone and 11-Deoxycorticosterone

11-Ketoprogesterone

11-Ketoprogesterone (brand name Ketogestin; former developmental code names Bio 66, U-1258), or 11-oxoprogesterone, also known as pregn-4-ene-3,11,20-trione, is a pregnane steroid related to cortisone (11-keto-17α,21-dihydroxyprogesterone) that was formerly used in veterinary medicine in the treatment of bovine ketosis. 11-Dehydrocorticosterone and 11-Ketoprogesterone are pregnanes, steroid stubs and Triketones.

See 11-Dehydrocorticosterone and 11-Ketoprogesterone

21-Deoxycortisone

21-Deoxycortisone, also known as 21-desoxycortisone, 11-keto-17α-hydroxyprogesterone, or 17α-hydroxypregn-4-ene-3,11,20-trione, is a naturally occurring, endogenous steroid and minor intermediate and metabolite in corticosteroid metabolism. 11-Dehydrocorticosterone and 21-Deoxycortisone are pregnanes, steroid stubs and Triketones.
