Cytochrome P450 11B1, mitochondrial (CYP11B1) usually hydroxylates 11-deoxycortisol (11DCORT) to form cortisol (CORT). CYP11B1 is associated with the inner mitochondrial membrane. Corticotropin (Adrenocorticotropic hormone, ACTH) acts through the ACTH receptor, melanocortin receptor type 2 (MC2R) to stimulate steroidogenesis, increasing the production of androgens (McKenna et al, 1997).
