Deoxycorticosterone acetate Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Chemical Properties
Off-White Solid
Uses
Adrenocortical/mineralocorticoid Steroid.
Uses
Deoxycorticosterone acetate has been used to induce hypertensive pregnancy. It has also been used to investigate the effect of low epicatechin dosing on the cardiovascular function of deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt hypertensive rats.
Definition
ChEBI: Deoxycorticosterone acetate is a corticosteroid hormone.
brand name
Doca (Organon); Percorten (Novartis) [Name previously used: Deoxycortone.].
General Description
Deoxycorticosterone acetate is an endogenous neurosteroid found in brain and peripheral circulation, which is produced by progesterone. It is both a mineralocorticoid and a glucocorticoid. It is used to treat adrenocortical insufficiency or Addison′s disease. Deoxycorticosterone acetate improves insulin sensitivity. It acts as a precursor to glucocorticoid corticosterone and the GABAergic neuroactive steroid (3α,5α)-3,21-dihydroxypregnan-20-one.
Purification Methods
11-Deoxycorticosterone acetate recrystallises from EtOH as needles or Me2CO/hexane, and sublimes at high vacuum. It is partly soluble in MeOH, Me2CO, Et2O and dioxane but insoluble in H2O.
