摘要
11β羟基类固醇脱氢酶(11βHSD)在胰岛素靶组织内催化皮质醇(皮质酮)与可的松(脱氢皮质酮)相互转化,调节局部糖皮质激素活性。11βHSD的表达、活性及分布与代谢综合征各方面相关联。抑制或下调11βHSD1的活性为治疗代谢综合征提供了一种新的方法。作者对这方面研究进展作一综述。
11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase ( 11β- HSD) catalyzes the interconversion of cortisone ( dehydro corticosterone) into cortisol(corticosterone) within insulin target tissues, thereby modulates the activity of glucocorticoids. 11β-HSD expression and activity are associated with the aspects of metabolic syndrome. Inhibition of 11β- HSD1 or to down-regulate 11β-HSD1 activity has been proposed as a novel strategy to treat the metabolic syndrome. This essay reviews the evolvement of the study.
