Glucocorticoids (GCs) are synthesised de novo by peripheral tissues and the adrenal cortex of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. Skin expresses an enzyme called 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1), which reduces cortisone to the active hormone cortisol which activates GC receptors. 11β-HSD1 plays a significant role in alleviating atopic inflammation through the elevation of the concentrations of active GC in the skin.

The effects and mechanism of J2H-1702, an 11β-HSD1 inhibitor, on nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) were explored.
