Hydroxylation and sulfation of sex steroid hormones in inflammatory liver
Sex steroids, also known as gonadal steroids, are oxidized with hydroxylation by cytochrome P450, glucuronidation by UDP-glucuronosyltransferase, sulfation by sulfotransferase, andO-methylation by catechol O-methyltransferase. Thus, it is important to determine the process by which inflammation influences metabolism of gonadal hormones. Therefore, we investigated the mechanism of metabolic enzy...
متن کاملStudies on the steroid hydroxylation system in adrenal cortex microsomes. Purification and characterization of cytochrome P-450 specific for steroid C-21 hydroxylation.
Cytochrome P-450 was purified to a specific content of 16 nmol/mg of protein from bovine adrenal cortex microsomes by hydrophobic chromatography using an w-amino-n-octyl Sepharose column in the presence of Emulgen 913, a nonionic detergent. The purified preparation exhibited a single polypeptide band (Mr = 47,000 f 1,000) when submitted to sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophor...
متن کاملMicrobiological hydroxylation of cinerone to cinerolone.
Cinerone [2-(2'-cis-butenyl)-3-methyl-2-cyclopenten-1-one] is hydroxylated to cinerolone [2-(2'-cis-butenyl)-3-methyl-4-hydroxy-2-cyclopenten-1-one] by a number of streptomycetes, bacteria, and fungi. Aspergillus niger ATCC 9,142 and Streptomyces aureofaciens ATCC 10,762 were found to be the most effective hydroxylators. The optical activity of the product was found to range from [alpha](D) (25...
متن کاملEffect of androgen and estrogen on the hydroxylation of steroid hormones by rat liver microsomes.
Castration in male rats decreased the activities of testosterone and progesterone hydroxylations and reduced the magnitude of spectral change caused by testosterone and progesterone in liver microsomes, accompanying less marked decrease in microsomal P-450 content and NADPH-neotetrazolium reductase activities. The administration of testosterone or methyltestosterone to the castrated rats comple...
متن کاملMicrobiological aspects in the hydroxylation of estrogens by Fusarium moniliforme.
A strain of Fusarium moniliforme (IH4), isolated from soil, showed outstanding enzymatic abilities to hydroxylate a number of estrogens. Estrone and estradiol were transformed into the 15alpha-hydroxy derivatives, and estradiol 3-methyl ether was transformed into the corresponding 6beta-hydroxy derivative. Delta(6)-Estrone was not hydroxylated. The accumulation of 15alpha-hydroxyestrone was inf...
