Abstract

It has been recently demonstrated that cortisol can be metabolized, producing 18-hydroxycortisol and 18-oxocortisol, following the same pathway by which corticosterone is transformed into 18-hydroxycorticosterone and aldosterone. The influence of a hydroxy group in the 17 alpha position of aldosterone or an aldehyde (actually 11-18 hemiacetal) in the 13-methyl of cortisol on the mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid activities were studied and compared with the parent steroids. The ability of 18-oxocortisol to complete with [3H]aldosterone for binding to the cytosol receptor of rat renal slices was 8.1% in comparison to unlabeled aldosterone. The addition of a specific glucocorticoid 11 beta, 17 beta-dihydroxy-17 alpha-pregnane-1,4,6- trien-20-yn-21-methyl-3-one decreased this binding to 5.6%. The ability of 18-oxocortisol to compete with [3H]dexamethasone for binding to the renal cytosol receptor was 0.2% that of unlabeled dexamethasone and in the HTC whole cell assay was 1.06% and 3.8% that of unlabeled dexamethasone and cortisol, respectively. The mineralocorticoid activity of 18-oxocortisol in the adrenalectomized rat bioassay was 0.6% that of aldosterone. The glucocorticoid activity in in vitro bioassays was 3.1% compared with that of a cortisol when the induction of tyrosine aminotransferase in HTC cells was measured and 4% when the inhibition of fibroblast L-929 growth was measured. The significance of 18-oxocortisol in the pathogenesis of the hypertension in patients with primary aldosteronism is still unclear.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
