Difference between 11β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and Apparent mineralocorticoid excess syndrome

11β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase vs. Apparent mineralocorticoid excess syndrome

11β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (HSD-11β or 11β-HSD) is a family of enzymes that catalyze the conversion of inert 11 keto-products (cortisone) to active cortisol, or vice versa, thus regulating the access of glucocorticoids to the steroid receptors: Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are 11beta-hydroxysteroid and NADP+, whereas its 3 products are 11-oxosteroid, NADPH, and H+. Apparent mineralocorticoid excess (AME) is an autosomal recessive disorder causing hypertension (high blood pressure) and hypokalemia (abnormally low levels of potassium).

Similarities between 11β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and Apparent mineralocorticoid excess syndrome

11β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and Apparent mineralocorticoid excess syndrome have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Aldosterone, Corticosteroid 11-beta-dehydrogenase isozyme 2, Cortisol, Cortisone, Mineralocorticoid.

Aldosterone

Aldosterone, the main mineralocorticoid hormone, is a steroid hormone produced by the zona glomerulosa of the adrenal cortex in the adrenal gland.

Corticosteroid 11-beta-dehydrogenase isozyme 2

Corticosteroid 11-β-dehydrogenase isozyme 2 also known as 11-β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the HSD11B2 gene.
