Expression 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 کاملDecreased Expression of Type 5 17β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase (AKR1C3) Protein Identified in Human Diabetic Skin Tissue
BACKGROUND Diabetes is characterized by chronic hyperglycemia, and hyperglycemia can increase reactive oxygen species (ROS) production from the mitochondrial electron transport chain. The formation of ROS in cells induces oxidative stress and activates oxidative damage-inducing genes. There is no research on the protein levels of oxidative damage-related genes AKR1C3 in human diabetic skin. We ...
متن کاملEstrogen 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 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...
متن کاملConformational flexibility in crystal structures of human 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type I provide insights into glucocorticoid interconversion and enzyme regulation.
Human 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type I (11beta-HSD1) is an ER-localized membrane protein that catalyzes the interconversion of cortisone and cortisol. In adipose tissue, excessive cortisol production through 11beta-HSD1 activity has been implicated in the pathogenesis of type II diabetes and obesity. We report here biophysical, kinetic, mutagenesis, and structural data on two ternary ...
