Description

Tetrahydrocortisol is cortisol metabolite. The urinary Tetrahydrocortisol/Tetrahydrocortisone ratio decreases with increasing 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11β-HSD) activity[1][2].


Tetrahydrocortisol is a 3alpha-hydroxy steroid, an 11beta-hydroxy steroid, a 17alpha-hydroxy steroid, a 21-hydroxy steroid, a 20-oxo steroid, a glucocorticoid, a primary alpha-hydroxy ketone and a tertiary alpha-hydroxy ketone. It derives from a hydride of a 5beta-pregnane.

TETRAHYDROCORTISOL Use and Manufacturing

Uses

Tetrahydrocortisol is excreted in large amounts in premenopausal patients with early breast cancer. Tetrahydrocortisol has been found to be produced by lymphocytes in both normal and cancer bearing patients however, the concentration of Tetrahydrocortisol has increased in patients with cancer.

Lipids -> Sterol Lipids [ST] -> Steroids [ST02] -> C21 steroids (gluco/mineralocorticoids, progestogins) and derivatives [ST0203]
