Steroid hormones are a diverse group of signaling molecules derived from cholesterol, playing critical roles in regulating various physiological processes within the body. These hormones are classified into several categories, each with distinct functions:
1. Corticosteroids: Produced by the adrenal cortex, corticosteroids include cortisol and aldosterone. Cortisol is essential for regulating metabolism, immune response, and stress adaptation, while aldosterone is key in maintaining electrolyte balance and blood pressure.
2. Sex Hormones: This category includes androgens (e.g., testosterone), estrogens (e.g., estradiol), and progestogens (e.g., progesterone). Androgens are involved in the development of male secondary sexual characteristics and reproductive functions. Estrogens and progestogens regulate female reproductive cycles, pregnancy, and various other aspects of female health.
3. Vitamin D Derivatives: Vitamin D, when converted into its active form (calcitriol), plays a crucial role in calcium and phosphate metabolism, affecting bone health and immune function.
Steroid hormones exert their effects by binding to specific intracellular receptors, which then regulate gene expression and subsequent cellular responses. Their influence extends to metabolism, immune function, reproductive health, and overall homeostasis. Research into steroid hormones is vital for understanding and managing a wide range of health conditions, including endocrine disorders, reproductive health issues, metabolic syndromes, and inflammatory diseases.
At MtoZ Biolabs, we utilize cutting-edge Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry/Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) technology for Steroid Hormone Analysis. This powerful analytical tool separates complex mixtures and accurately quantifies a wide range of steroid hormones. Once the sample is loaded onto the LC-MS/MS system, the LC component separates the individual steroid hormones based on their chemical properties. The separated hormones are then ionized and detected by the MS system, providing accurate and precise quantification.
