5α-Dihydrocorticosterone ((5α,11β)-11,21-dihydroxypregnane-3,20-dione; abbreviated as 5α-DHC, 5α-DHB) is a naturally-occurring, endogenous glucocorticoid steroid hormone and neurosteroid.[1][2][3] It is biosynthesized from corticosterone by the enzyme 5α-reductase.[4][5][6] DHC has central depressant effects and impairs long-term potentiation in animals.[7][8]
