What is ALPHA-CORTOLONE?

The Uses of ALPHA-CORTOLONE

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.
