Etiocholanolone is a DHEA metabolite that is excreted in the urine. It is produced from androstenedione and the 5-beta-reductase metabolic pathway. It is helpful in evaluating adrenal and androgen function.

Etiocholanolone is a 5-beta reduced isomer of androsterone, and a major metabolite of testosterone and androstenedione, however it is not active as an androgen.

Eubacterium spp. are of only minor clinical importance. They are normal flora of the intestinal tract and cause infection under opportunistic conditions.

Eubacterium hallii and Eubacterium rectale are both part of the Lachnospiraceae family that is in the Firmicutes phylum.

Eubacterium rectale (E. rectale), which accounts for up to 13% of the gut microbiota in total feces in the human colon and thus, is one of the most prevalent bacterial species, is a major contributor to the production of butyrate. People with Crohn’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and ulcerative colitis have significantly reduced amounts of Eubacterium rectale, and these people have lower butyrate concentrations in their feces than healthy individuals.

Eubacterium rectale is part of the Lachnospiraceae family and produces butyrate. Eubacterium rectale was found to be in lower abundance in patients with type 2 diabetes, colorectal cancer, and chronic idiopathic diarrhea. There is a negative correlation between Eubacterium rectale levels and the symptomatology of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Decreased levels of Eubacterium spp. have been associated with very high protein diets.

The Euryarchaeota phylum, a key player in the realm of gut microbiome analysis, stands out in gut health panels for its unique and diverse archaeal species. This phylum, part of the broader Archaea domain, includes various organisms that play crucial roles in the gut ecosystem, notably the methane-producing Methanobrevibacter smithii. The presence and levels of Euryarchaeota in the gastrointestinal tract are indicative of the gut's metabolic state and overall health. These archaea are particularly known for their role in methane production, which can significantly impact gut motility and the digestive process.

Cortisol is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands, which are located on top of the kidneys. It is normally released in response to events and circumstances such as waking up in the morning, exercising, and acute stress.
