• 17-OHCS is a product formed when the liver and other body tissues break down the steroid hormone cortisol. (medlineplus.gov)
  • Serum cortisol, progesterone, 17-hydroxypregnenolone (17-OHJPREG). (nih.gov)
  • Clinical characteristics, radiologic imaging, and a 6-day Liddle test with determination of urinary free cortisol and 17-hydroxycorticosteroid excretion. (nih.gov)
  • We conclude that at 100% specificity, a single serum was collected for 24 h for measurement of cortisol and 17-hydroxy- cortisol value above 7.5 g/dL at midnight discriminates CS from PCS corticosteroids (17OHCS). (nih.gov)
  • The 17-hydroxycorticosteroids (17-OHCS) test measures the level of 17-OHCS in the urine. (medlineplus.gov)
  • The urine volume and urine creatinine are often done with 17-OHCS test at the same time. (medlineplus.gov)
  • The D-xylose absorption test also showed dysfunction of intestinal absorption in groups H and M. The serum cortisone and 24 h urine 17-OHCS were significantly reduced in group H. Conclusions . (hindawi.com)
  • Hydroxycorticosteroids (OHCSs) are corticosteroids that have an additional hydroxy (-OH) group. (wikipedia.org)
  • 17-HYDROXY CORTICOSTEROIDS - This is also known as 17-Hydroxy Corticosteroids and 17 OHCS. (rtdiagnostics.net)
  • 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP), dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), and androstenedione (A) were measured after 2 h of insulin or saline infusion (zero time) and, subsequently, 30 and 60 min after an iv bolus of 0.25 mg ACTH-(1-24). (nih.gov)
  • Lower 17-OHCS may indicate adrenal glands not producing enough of their hormones due to infection and/or disease or organ disorder / dysfunction-related disturbances (such as pituitary gland insufficiency). (rtdiagnostics.net)
  • There are two main positions where the hydroxy group may be added: at carbon atom 11, and at carbon atom 17. (wikipedia.org)
  • A group of hydroxycorticosteroids bearing a hydroxy group at the 17-position. (nih.gov)
  • This effect of insulin seems to be associated with a relative impairment of 17,20-lyase activity. (nih.gov)
