Metabolite Identification
Common NameTetrahydrocortisol
DescriptionTetrahydrocortisol belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 21-hydroxysteroids. These are steroids carrying a hydroxyl group at the 21-position of the steroid backbone. Tetrahydrocortisol is possibly soluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Tetrahydrocortisol can be converted into dihydrocortisol; which is mediated by the enzyme aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C4. In cattle, tetrahydrocortisol is involved in the metabolic pathway called the steroidogenesis pathway. Tetrahydrocortisol is a potentially toxic compound.
