Tetrahydrocortisone is a corticosteroid and a crucial marker for glucocorticoid metabolism, formed from endogenous glucocorticoids via the enzyme AKR1D1 (5β-reductase). This compound plays a vital role in maintaining glucocorticoid metabolic homeostasis and is regulated by the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). Tetrahydrocortisone is valuable for mechanistic investigations of metabolic diseases, including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and type 2 diabetes, and serves as a reliable biomarker for assessing AKR1D1 activity and glucocorticoid metabolic status in vivo.
