Raised 17-hydroxyprogesterone levels in congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) refers to autosomal recessive diseases resulting from deficiency of enzymes involved in the production of cortisol by the adrenal glands. This study was designed to determine the frequency of suspected congenital adrenal hyperplasia patients by evaluating the laboratory data of blood 17-OHP. The study was conducted at Chemical Pathology Section of Department...
متن کاملPossible andrologic markers in elevated neonatal 17-hydroxyprogesterone.
In this prospective study, we analyzed 30 male infants with increased neonatal 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17OH-P) (patients) and for comparison 52 age-matched healthy babies (control subjects) with the aim of investigating the hypothalamic-pituitary-testis axis in the first 6 months of life. Although T, FSH, and LH levels were not significantly different in patients and control subjects, inhibin B...

متن کاملMetabolism of 17-hydroxyprogesterone by a Bacillus species.
Fermentation of 17-hydroxyprogesterone with a Bacillus species (IICB-301) in a modified nutrient medium under aerobic conditions yielded androst-4-ene-3,17-dione and 15 alpha,17-dihydroxypregn-4-ene-3,20-dione in addition to a new pregnane analogue, 6 beta,17,20 alpha-trihydroxypregn-4-ene-3-one. Each microbial metabolite was characterized by the application of various spectroscopic techniques....
متن کاملMonitoring congenital adrenal hyperplasia using blood spot 17-hydroxyprogesterone assay.
Blood spots taken by finger prick collected on filter paper cards can provide an option to venous blood extraction in monitoring 17-OHP levels in children with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH). This study was done to evaluate the usefulness of blood spot 17-OHP in monitoring disease control in pre-pubertal children with CAH, to correlate it with simultaneously extracted venous 17-OHP levels...
