Most reports of cortisol half-life in the literature report a range of 90-130 min, which results are based on descriptive model that assumes mono-exponential decay of a single, total cortisol compartment. Free cortisol half-life has been similarly as

The estrogen receptor α (ERα) is known to convey both genomic and extra-genomic activities. The extra-nuclear estrogen signaling pathway is thought to involve a membrane-associated estrogen receptor (ERα), which activates PI3-kinase and Akt signal

The metabolism of 11β-hydroxyandrostenedione (11OHA4), a major adrenal C19 steroid, was first characterised in our in vitro prostate models showing that 11OHA4, catalysed by 11βHSDs, 17βHSDs and 5α-reductases, yields potent androgens, 11keto-test
