Description
Tetrahydrocorticosterone is a type of glucocorticoid with notable anti-inflammatory properties. One of its active forms, 5α-Tetrahydrocorticosterone , acts by binding to the GC receptor and inhibiting inflammatory processes. Tetrahydrocorticosterone is naturally synthesized by the adrenal glands and plays a role in regulating the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats[1][2].
