Natural Inhibitors of the Aromatase Enzyme*
The results of three years of search for natural aromatase inhibitors will be presented. Estrogen biosynthesis is catalyzed by the aromatase enzyme complex. This complex if made up of a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes known as cytochrome P450 aromatase (P450arom, produced by the CYP19 gene). Associated with this enzyme one finds the flavoprotein NADPH cytochrome P450 reduct...
متن کاملAromatase inhibitors and enzyme stability.
The effects of two steroidal (4-hydroxyandrostenedione and atamestane) and three non-steroidal (fadrozole, vorozole, and pentrozole) aromatase inhibitors on the levels of aromatase mRNA and protein were examined in vitro and in vivo. Immunocytochemistry revealed increased quantities of immunoreactive aromatase in human choriocarcinoma-derived JEG-3 cells in response to pretreatment with the non...
متن کاملThe comparison of the effect of different inhibitors on aromatase enzyme effective in the breast cancer by molecular docking method
Background: Aromatase is an enzyme that plays an important role in the development of estrogen-positive breast cancer. Estrogens are essential in human and mainly in women because of their role in sexual development and reproduction. Adverse effects of some aromatase inhibitors increase the need to discover new inhibitors with higher selectivity, lower toxicity and improved potency. In this stu...
متن کاملThe Effect of in ovo Injection of Aromatase Inhibitors on the Performance of Broilers
Change in sex ratios for broiler chickens, has many economic benefits of the poultry industry. The gonads in chick embryo at an early stage have the potential to convert to both sexes (male and female). Sexual differentiation is due to aromatase expression in the left gonad in 5-6 days of the embryonic period and the production of estrogen from testosterone. Administration of aromatase inhibito...
متن کاملAromatase inhibitors versus antioestrogens
Endocrine therapies act by either blocking or downregulating the oestrogen receptor or by reducing oestrogen concentrations around and within the cancer cell. In postmenopausal women, oestrogen suppression is achieved by inhibition of the enzyme aromatase by aromatase inhibitors (AIs). Modern AIs (anastrozole, letrozole and exemestane) are more potent than earlier ones and suppress oestradiol l...
