Cortisone is a hormone. Chemically it is a corticosteroid with formula C21H28O5 and IUPAC name 17-hydroxy-11-dehydrocorticosterone. It is closely related to corticosterone. Cortisone and adrenaline are the main hormones released by the body as a reaction to stress. They elevate blood pressure and prepare the body for a fight or flight response. Cortisone is the inactive precursor molecule of the active hormone cortisol. It is activated through hydroxylation of the 11-keto-group by an enzyme called 11-beta-steroid dehydrogenase. The active form cortisol is thus sometimes referred to as hydrocortisone. Cortisone is sometimes used as a drug to treat a variety of ailments.Synonyms: 11, 17alpha, 17alpha-Hydroxy-11-dehydrocorticosterone, 20-trione, 21-Dihydroxy-4-pregnene-3, 21-diol-3, 4-Pregnene-17alpha
