The progesterone derivatives 11 alpha- and 11 beta-hydroxyprogesterone are potent inhibitors of 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (isoforms 1 and 2) in vitro and can confer mineralocorticoid activity on corticosterone in the rat in vivo. 11beta-Hydroxyprogesterone acts as a mineralocorticoid agonist in stimulating Na+ absorption in mammalian principal cortical collecting duct cells. |

Glycyrrhetinic acid
|
Glycyrrhetinic acid, an AChE activator, has anti-inflammatory,and antileukaemic activities. It is a potent inducer of mitochondrial permeability transition and can trigger the pro-apoptotic pathway, it has a low but definite affinity for mineralocorticoid receptors and thus appears to have a direct mineralocorticoid action. |
