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.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
