Urinary free cortisone and the assessment of 11β‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity in man
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Two isoforms of 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11 beta-HSD) catalyse the interconversion of cortisol to hormonally inactive cortisone; defects in the 11 beta-HSD2 isoform result in hypertension. The kidney, expressing high levels of 11 beta-HSD2, is the principal source of cortisone in man. We have validated the measurement of urinary free cortisone (UFE) excretion in normals and in patients with disorders of the pitultary-adrenal axis in an attempt to more accurately measure the activity of 11 beta-HSD2 in vivo. SUBJECTS: Forty-one normal adults, 12 normal children < 12 years of age, 15 patients with Cushing's syndrome, 12 with hypopitultarism on replacement hydrocortisone, 12 with the syndrome of apparent mineralocorticoid excess (AME) and 7 volunteers consuming liquorice. MEASUREMENTS: A complete 24-hour urine collection was analysed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry for "A-ring' reduced cortisol and cortisone metabolites, i.e. tetrahydrocortisols (THF and allo-THF) and tetrahydrocortisone (THE). In addition, urinary free cortisol (UFF) and urinary free cortisone were quantified using deuterium-labelled internal standards. RESULTS: In normal adults and children, UFE excretion exceeded that of UFF (UFF 30.4 +/- 2.4 micrograms/24h (mean +/- SE), UFE 54.6 +/- 4.1 micrograms/24h, adults) (for conversion to nmol/24h multiply E by 2.78 and F by 2.76 respectively). Thus the normal UFF/UFE ratio was 0.54 +/- 0.05 in contrast to the (THF + allo-THF)/THE ratio of 1.21 +/- 0.06. UFE excretion was normal in hypopituitary patients on replacement hydrocortisone. Although UFE was elevated in all forms of Cushing's syndrome, the UFF/UFE ratio was grossly elevated in patients with the ectopic ACTH syndrome (14.0 +/- 6.7, n = 6). UFE was below the lower limit of the assay (< 1 microgram/24h) in most patients with the so-called type 1 variant of AME and significantly reduced in 4 patients described as having the type 2 variant of AME (10.5 +/- 3.5 micrograms/h, P < 0.05) and in 7 volunteers consuming liquorice (26.8 +/- 10.0 micrograms/24h, P < 0.01). In ectopic ACTH syndrome, AME, and liquorice ingestion the UFF/UFE ratio was more deranged than the (THF + allo-THF)/THE ratio. CONCLUSION: In normals the discrepant THF + allo-THF/ THE and UFF/UFE ratio suggests that much more of the UFE is derived from the kidney. Reduction in UFE excretion is seen following liquorice ingestion and in both variants of AME, though it is more profound in AME1. The high UFF/UFE ratio in the mineralocorticoid excess state seen in the ectopic ACTH syndrome is compatible with substrate-saturation of renal 11 beta-HSD2. The measurement of UFE and the UFF/UFE ratio is a significant advance in the analysis of human 11 beta-HSD activity in vivo; in particular, the UFF/UFE ratio appears to be a more sensitive index than the (THF + allo-THF)/THE ratio of renal 11 beta-HSD2 activity.

“The urinary free cortisol–to–urinary free cortisone ratio has emerged as a more sensitive marker for AME than the ratio of (THF+5α-THF)/THE (100), as A-ring reduction to tetrahydro metabolites takes place mainly in the liver and their ratio may not accurately reflect renal HSD11B2 activity.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
