  <class>SmallMolecule</class>
  <description>Tixocortol is an organic compound with the formula C21H30O4S and an average molecular weight of 378.53 g/mol. Tixocortol belongs to the pregnane steroids, a subclass of steroids and steroid derivatives within the organic compounds.

This compound is found in or released from two recorded sources: healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and veterinary products, specifically as nasal preparations and intestinal antiinflammatory agents. Recorded exposure routes for the substance include rectal and cutaneous administration. Tixocortol acts on two recorded protein targets, serving as a binder/stimulator of the glucocorticoid receptor (NR3C1) and targeting histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2).</description>
