| Bioactivity | 18-Hydroxy-11-deoxy corticosterone (18-OH-DOC) is a mineralocorticoid whose synthesis is regulated by adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and angiotensin II. 18-Hydroxy-11-deoxy corticosterone is an intermediate in the metabolism of progesterone and plays an important role in regulating blood pressure and water-salt balance. Continuous infusion of 18-Hydroxy-11-deoxy corticosterone can increase systolic blood pressure in rats, and plasma levels of 18-Hydroxy-11-deoxy corticosterone are significantly elevated in the db/db mouse model of type 2 diabetes, suggesting its potential involvement in metabolic dysregulation and diabetes-related regulation. 18-Hydroxy-11-deoxy corticosterone holds promise for research in areas such as hypertension, diabetes, and other related fields[1]. |
