The interconversion of active cortisol and corticosterone with inert cortisone and 11-dehydrocorticosterone is catalyzed by two isozymes of 11-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11-HSD). The regeneration of active glucocorticoids is catalyzed by 11-HSD type 1 (11-HSD1), a predominant reductase in the majority of intact cells, amplifying cellular action. In obesity, 11-HSD1 is primarily elevated in adipose tissue, where it plays a role in metabolic complications. Similar to this, 11-HSD1 is increased in the aging brain, where it exacerbates cognitive decline brought on by glucocorticoids.In rodent models and human clinical trials, 11-HSD1 deficiency or selective inhibition improves a number of metabolic syndrome parameters, and similar improvements in cognitive function with aging. A high-affinity dehydrogenase called 11-HSD2 renders glucocorticoids inactive. Only aldosterone is an agonist at mineralocorticoid receptors (MR) in the distal nephron due to 11-HSD2. Due to inappropriate glucocorticoid activation of renal MR, 11-HSD2 inhibition or genetic deficiency result in apparent mineralocorticoid excess and hypertension. Additionally, the fetus and placenta both highly express 11-HSD2, which, by inactivating glucocorticoids, prevents premature fetal tissue maturation and the ensuing "programming" of the fetus' development.
