corticosteronen.

/ˌkɔːtɪkəʊˈstɪərəʊn/

Forms: Also corticosteron.

Etymology: < German corticosteron (Reichstein et al. 1936, in Proc. K. Akad. Wetensch. (Amsterdam) XXXIX. 1218), < cortico- comb. form + ster- (in sterol n.)+-one suffix.

Biochemistry.

A steroid hormone, C₂₁H₃₀O₄, produced by the adrenal cortex.

ΚΠ

1937 Nature 2 Jan. 26/1 (heading) Corticosteron, a crystallized compound with the biological activity of the adrenal~cortical hormone.

1937 Nature 2 Jan. 26/2 Corticosteron is a highly active cortical hormone.

1937 Steiger & Reichstein in Nature 29 May 926/1 This compound differs from corticosterone only by the absence of the fourth oxygen, and can therefore also be called desox-corticosterone.

1938 Ann. Reg. 1937 348 A new male sex hormone..was isolated and made synthetically, and a compound was synthesised (21-oxy-progesterone) with activity similar to corticosterone.

1952 G. H. Bourne Cytol. & Cell Physiol. (ed. 2) xi. 478 From the adrenal cortex there have been extracted two main groups of physiologically active steroids. One group..of which corticosterone and cortisone are examples, affects carbohydrate metabolism and the distribution of glucose.

1964 L. C. Martin Clin. Endocrinol. (ed. 4) v. 166 The C₂₁ steroids cortisol, cortisone and corticosterone..have their predominant effects upon carbohydrate and protein metabolism.

1969 Times 7 Jan. 8/7 The rat-reared mice also produced less corticosterone, a hormone that prepares the body for stress, when faced with an alarming situation.
