Estrogen and androgen-converting enzymes 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and their involvement in cancer: with a special focus on 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1, 2, and breast cancer
Sex steroid hormones such as estrogens and androgens are involved in the development and differentiation of the breast tissue. The activity and concentration of sex steroids is determined by the availability from the circulation, and on local conversion. This conversion is primarily mediated by aromatase, steroid sulfatase, and 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases. In postmenopausal women, this is...
متن کامل17β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type 3 Deficiency: Diagnosis, Phenotypic Variability and Molecular Findings
The steroid hormones are lipophilic compounds with low molecular weight, derived from cholesterol, which play a crucial role in differentiation, development and physiological functions of many tissues. They are synthesized primarily by endocrine glands, such as the gonads, the adrenal glands and the feto-placental unit during pregnancy. In addition, the central nervous system (CNS) seems to be ...
متن کاملSynthesis and Molecular Docking Studies of 2-arylideneindan-1,3-diones Derivatives as an Inhibitor of 17β-hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type 1
Due to the drawbacks of applying catalysts in the synthesis of α,β-unsaturated structure units and the importance of these materials, electrochemistry has been introduced as an efficient alternative.Therefore, herein a high-yield synthesis of 2-arylideneindan-1,3-diones is proposed. The procedure is carried out in propanol, using electrons as a green catalyst for generating propanol anion...
متن کاملExpression patterns of 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 14 in human tissues.
17βHSD enzymes catalyze the stereospecific oxidation/reduction at carbon 17β of androgens and estrogens, and are important players in intracrine sex hormone synthesis. The biological relevance of 17βHSD14, first named retSDR3, is largely unknown. We generated and validated an antibody targeting the 17βHSD14 antigen and used this for immunohistochemical evaluation of expression patterns in 33 he...
متن کاملRoles of 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 10 in neurodegenerative disorders
17β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 10 (17β-HSD10) is encoded by the HSD17B10 gene mapping at Xp11.2. This homotetrameric mitochondrial multifunctional enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of neuroactive steroids and the degradation of isoleucine. This enzyme is capable of binding to other peptides, such as estrogen receptor α, amyloid-β, and tRNA methyltransferase 10C. Missense mutations of the HS...
