11-deoxy Corticosterone (DOC) is an endogenous mineralocorticoid synthesized in the zona fasciculata and zona glomerulosa of the adrenal gland. It is a metabolite of progesterone (Item No. <span class=/itemid/>15876</span>) and precursor to aldosterone (Item No. <span class=/itemid/>15273</span>) and corticosterone (Item No. <span class=/itemid/>16063</span>). DOC is metabolized to the neuroactive compound (3α,5α)-2,21-dihydroxypregnan-20-one (THDOC), which positively modulates GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors and produces effects similar to barbiturates in rats. Injections of naloxone (Item Nos. <span class=/itemid/>15594</span> | <span class=/itemid/>ISO60191</span>) and corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) increase, while dexamethasone decreases, DOC in cynomolgus monkeys. DOC levels are increased 3.4-fold in obese and diabetic mice.
