Tetrahydrocorticosterone
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Tetrahydrocorticosterone is a glucocorticoid. One of its active forms, 5α-Tetrahydrocorticosterone (HY-113364), exerts its effects by binding to the GC receptor and inhibiting inflammatory processes. Tetrahydrocorticosterone is naturally synthesized by the adrenal glands and plays a key role in regulating the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins and fats.
