Background: 11 beta-HSD2

The human enzyme HSD-2/11 beta-HSD2 is encoded by the HSD11B2 gene and codes for a 405 aa protein, with high expression in kidney, colon, pancreas and placenta1. HSD-2 modulates intracellular glucocorticoid levels by catalyzing the conversion of cortisol to the inactive metabolite cortisone2. HSD-2 is abundantly expressed in human placenta and controls fetal glucocorticoid levels to protect the fetus from glucocorticoid exposure. Similarly, HSD-2 expression in the distal nephron protects mineralcorticoid receptors from glucocorticoids and helps regulate blood pressure3. Exposure to major environmental pollutant like Cadmium, inhibits activity of HSD-2 which affects the synthesis of glucocorticoids in placenta and thus contribute to developing preeclamptic conditions.
