General description

A new calibration material suitable for LC/MS applications in clinical and diagnostic testing and endocrinology. 21-deoxycortisol, a steroid intermediate in the formation of cortisol, is measured in whole blood or serum by LC/MS for newborn screening of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) and other adrenal diseases.

Application

  • Steroid profiling for the diagnosis of congenital adrenal hyperplasia by microbore ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry: This article emphasizes the significance of steroid profiling using advanced chromatography techniques to diagnose congenital adrenal hyperplasia, highlighting the role of 21-Deoxycortisol as a critical marker (Feng D et al., 2023).
  • Second-tier Testing for 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency in the Netherlands: A Newborn Screening Pilot Study: This study introduces a second-tier testing protocol involving 21-Deoxycortisol to enhance the screening process for congenital adrenal hyperplasia in newborns, demonstrating its utility in early and accurate diagnosis (Stroek K et al., 2021).

21-deoxycortisol (21-DF) is a steroid of strictly adrenal origin formed by the 11-hydroxylation of 17-hydroxyprogesterone. This metabolic pathway is minor in normal subjects, in whom basal plasma concentrations range from 0.03 to 0.63 nmol/L and from 0.865 to 1.50 nmol/L

21-Hydroxylase deficiency (21OHD) is the commonest form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, while 11betaOHD represents 5% of cases. Although both result from mutations in distinct genes, cases of 'apparent' combined 21OHD and 11betaOHD (AC21,11OHD) have been occasionally reported. A 6 year-old
