11 beta-HSD2: ELISA Kits

Type I 11-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 (11beta-HSD1, HSD11B1 or HSD1) is a microsomal glycoprotein enzyme, with an apparent mass of 36 kDa. HSD-1 catalyzes the conversion of the stress hormone cortisol to the inactive metabolite cortisone. 11beta-HSD1 can also catalyze the reverse reaction, the conversion of cortisone to cortisol. 11beta-HSD1 has been detected in a wide range of rat and human tissues, including lung and testis, but highest amounts are expressed in the liver.
