Build a molecular structure model of Cortisol (Hydrocortisone) utilizing Authentic Molymod Parts by Indigo.
Cortisol is a glucocorticoid steroidal hormone produced in the adrenal cortex & is released primarily in response to stress; hydrocortisone refers its use as medication for treatment of various ailments such as inflammation.
Cortisol has many functions including promotion of glucose production (gluconeogenesis), lung surfactant in developing fetuses & inhibition of release of compounds that cause inflammation.
A molecular model of Cortisol in the Molymod Hybrid Dome style uses the atoms & bonds in the parts list below. Our free 3D Molecular Model Builder shows other styles & allows for image rotation as an assembly guide.
