    Product Description

    11-deoxy Corticosterone-d8 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of 11-deoxy corticosterone (Item No. 22916) by GC- or LC-MS. 11-deoxy Corticosterone (DOC) is an endogenous mineralocorticoid synthesized in the zona fasciculata and zona glomerulosa of the adrenal gland.1 It is a metabolite of progesterone (Item No. 15876) and precursor to aldosterone (Item No. 15273) and corticosterone (Item No. 16063).2 DOC is metabolized to the neuroactive compound (3α,5α)-2,21-dihydroxypregnan-20-one (THDOC), which positively modulates GABAA receptors and produces effects similar to barbiturates in rats.3 Injections of naloxone and corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) increase, while dexamethasone decreases, DOC in cynomolgus monkeys.1 DOC levels are increased 3.4-fold in obese and diabetic mice.2

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
