ChEBI ID CHEBI:139271
ChEBI ASCII Name 6beta-hydroxycortisol
Definition A C21-steroid that is cortisol bearing an additional hydroxy substituent at the 6β-position. In humans, it is produced as a metabolite of cortisol by cytochrome p450-3A4 (CYP3A4, an important enzyme involved in the metabolism of a variety of exogenous and endogenous compounds) and can be used to detect moderate and potent CYP3A4 inhibition in vivo.
