Hypertension in mice lacking 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Deficiency of 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (11beta-HSD2) in humans leads to the syndrome of apparent mineralocorticoid excess (SAME), in which cortisol illicitly occupies mineralocorticoid receptors, causing sodium retention, hypokalemia ...
