6beta-hydroxycortisone is a C21-steroid that is cortisone bearing an additional hydroxy substituent at the 6beta-position. 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. It has a role as a probe and a human metabolite. It is a primary alpha-hydroxy ketone, a tertiary alpha-hydroxy ketone, a 17alpha-hydroxy steroid, a 21-hydroxy steroid, a 6beta-hydroxy steroid, a 20-oxo steroid, an 11-oxo steroid, a 3-oxo-Delta(4) steroid and a C21-steroid. It is functionally related to a cortisone.
