21-Deoxycortisol also known as 11β,17α-dihydroxyprogesterone or as 11β,17α-dihydroxypregn-4-ene-3,20-dione, is a steroid hormone synthesized by the adrenal cortex, playing a critical role as an intermediate in cortisol synthesis. It serves as a key marker for 21-hydroxylase deficiency, a condition where 21-deoxycortisol cannot be converted into cortisol or other essential glucocorticoids. This metabolic blockage leads to its accumulation in the bloodstream, which is closely linked to congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). Measuring 21-deoxycortisol levels is crucial for the clinical diagnosis and management of CAH, as well as for understanding the pathophysiology and treatment responses in adrenal disorders.
