Activation of human liver 3alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase by clofibrate derivatives.
The NADP+-dependent dehydrogenase activity of a predominant isoenzyme of human liver 3alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase was activated by antihyperlipidemic drugs, such as bezafibrate and clinofibrate, and by clofibric acid and fenofibric acid (active metabolites of clofibrate and fenofibrate, respectively). The optimal pH of the activation by the drugs was about 7.5, and the concentrations giv...
متن کاملDexamethasone regulation of the rat 3alpha-hydroxysteroid/dihydrodiol dehydrogenase gene.
Rat liver 3alpha-hydroxysteroid/dihydrodiol dehydrogenase (3alpha-HSD/DD), a member of the aldo-keto reductase superfamily, inactivates circulating steroid hormones and may contribute to the carcinogenicity of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) by oxidizing trans-dihydrodiols to reactive o-quinones with the concomitant generation of reactive oxygen species. The 3alpha-HSD/DD gene has been ...
متن کاملConversion of mammalian 3alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase to 20alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase using loop chimeras: changing specificity from androgens to progestins.
Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases (HSDs) regulate the occupancy and activation of steroid hormone receptors by converting potent steroid hormones into their cognate inactive metabolites. 3alpha-HSD catalyzes the inactivation of androgens in the prostate by converting 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone to 3alpha-androstanediol, where excess 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone is implicated in prostate disease. By co...
متن کاملTibolone metabolism in human liver is catalyzed by 3alpha/3beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activities of the four isoforms of the aldo-keto reductase (AKR)1C subfamily.
Tibolone [[7alpha,17alpha]-17-hydroxy-7-methyl-19-norpregn-5(10)-en-20-yn-3-one] is used to treat climacteric symptoms and prevent osteoporosis. It exerts tissue-selective effects via site-specific metabolism into 3alpha- and 3beta-hydroxymetabolites and a Delta4-isomer. Recombinant human cytosolic aldo-keto reductases 1C1 and 1C2 (AKR1C1 and AKR1C2) produce 3beta-hydroxytibolone, and the liver...
متن کاملApo- and holo-structures of 3alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas sp. B-0831. Loop-helix transition induced by coenzyme binding.
Bacterial 3alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, which belongs to a short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase family and forms a dimer composed of two 26-kDa subunits, catalyzes the oxidoreduction of hydroxysteroids in a coenzyme-dependent manner. This enzyme also catalyzes the oxidoreduction of nonsteroid compounds that play an important role in xenobiotic metabolism of bacteria. We performed an x-ray...
