Corticosterone (CAS 50-22-6) is the principal endogenous glucocorticoid in rodents, appearing as a white to off-white crystalline powder. Its 11β,21-dihydroxy-4-ene-3,20-dione structure is closely homologous to human cortisol, making it the standard tool for stress-axis and metabolic studies in rodent models.
