Application

6β-Hydroxycortisol has been used in liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) analysis to confirm the human embryonic kidney (HEK293) cell-based conversion of parent cortisol to 6β-hydroxycortisol (6βOH) metabolites.

Biochem/physiol Actions

6β-Hydroxycortisol is a metabolite of cortisol.
6β-Hydroxycortisol serves as a substrate for the organic anion transporter 3 (OAT3) and the multidrug and toxin extrusion proteins (MATE1 and MATE-2K).
