cortisone acetate descriptions:

cortisone acetate is a steroid hormone that has both glucocoriticoid and mineral corticoid activities. corticosteroids are used to provide relief for inflamed areas of the body. they lessen swelling, redness, itching, and allergic reactions. they are often used as part of the treatment for a number of different diseases, such as severe allergies or skin problems, asthma, or arthritis.

endogenous glucocorticoids and some synthetic corticoids have high affinity to the protein transcortin (also called cbg, corticosteroid-binding protein), whereas all of them bind albumin. glucocorticoids also bind to the cytosolic glucocorticoid receptor.
