“…The current data are consistent with previous studies regarding the deleterious effect of EDS on steroidogenic cells of adult male rat adrenal cortex. 1 Using model of EDS treated rats we have found that the dynamic of 11β HSD2 expression correlated with the changes of serum testosterone levels following the exposure with EDS. 9 The lowest 11 βHSD2 staining intensity was found 7 days after EDS followed by progressive increase in the immunoreactivity toward days 14 and 21.…”

“…The changes were most prominent in the inner zones -zona fasciculata and zona reticularis. 1 11β hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11β HSD) catalyzes the interconversion of biologically active cortisol to cortisone in man and cotricosterone to 11-dehydrocorticosterone in rodents and plays a crucial role in regulating corticosteroid hormone action. 2 Inhibition of 11β HSD allows access of cortisol or corticosterone to the mineralcorticoid receptors where it acts as a mineralcorticoid.…”

“…EDS can exert its cytotoxic effect on other cell types e.g. the parenchymal cells of the adrenal cortex (Plecas et al 1997), but its main cytotoxic targets are mature adult Leydig cells. The counterpart in females to adult Leydig cells in males, are steroidogenic ovarian theca cells, however EDS did not affect the thecal cells (Smart et al 1990).…”
