Objective: Glucocorticoids exert their effects through the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). The local, cell-type specific glucocorticoid effect is modulated by the 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase enzymes (HSD11B) responsible for the interconversion of cortisone and cortisol. Individual sensitivity against glucocorticoids and activity of the HSD11B enzymes are at least partly determined by genetic factors.Aim: To test whether SNPs of GR and HSD11B1 gen...
