Journal ArticleDOI
11Beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 in human pregnancy and reduced expression in intrauterine growth restriction.

TL;DR: The finding of attenuated placental 11beta-HSD2 activity in IUGR suggests that glucocorticoids may, in part, contribute to impaired fetal growth and that this is closely controlled in normal gestation through placental 12beta- HSD2 expression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hypertension in the syndrome of apparent mineralocorticoid excess due to mutation of the 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 gene
Paul M. Stewart,A Gupta,Michael C. Sheppard,C B Whorwood,Alexander J. Howie,David V. Milford,Z.S Krozowski +6 more
TL;DR: The 11 beta-HSD2 gene is analysed as a candidate gene in explaining the molecular basis of AME and a point mutation (C1228T) is found in two affected siblings, and in placental DNA obtained from a stillbirth pregnancy.
