A number of conditions related to sex-reversal in boys and men and precocious puberty in girls are caused by estrogen-secreting adrenal tumors. In these tumors, cytochrome P450 aromatase (aromatase) that is encoded in the CYP19 gene is expressed at high levels. To investigate the molecular mechanism of aromatase expression in these adrenal tumors, we characterized the activity, gene transcript ...
BACKGROUND While menopause results in the loss of cyclic steroid production, evidence exists for persistent, albeit reduced, ovarian androgen production. In order to continue to synthesize ovarian androgens, the steroidogenic enzymes necessary for androgen biosynthesis must be present. Few studies have selectively analysed some of the steroidogenic enzymes present in the post-menopausal ovary (...
OBJECTIVE To compare steroid concentrations and steroid product-to-precursor ratios in ovarian follicular fluid (FF) from women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and from regularly menstruating women in their early follicular phase, using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Polycystic ovary syndrome involves abnormal regulation of the steroidogenic enzymes, leading to...
OBJECTIVE The effects of miroestrol (MR), an active phytoestrogen from Pueraria candollei var. mirifica, on expression of cancer-related genes were determined. METHODS Seven-week-old female ICR mice (n = 5 each) were subcutaneously administered estradiol (E2, 0.5 mg/kg/day) or MR (0.5 or 5 mg/kg/day) daily for 7 days. Some were given ER or MR in combination with β-naphthoflavone (BNF, 30 mg/k...
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer and the second cause of mortality in women all around the world. It is caused by several factors including genetic determinants, so that both genetic susceptibility factors and environmental factors are involved in the etiology. Significance of genes functioning in steroid hormone synthesis and metabolism are well established in breast cancer suscept...
Gonadal differentiation in frogs is affected by sex steroids and thyroid hormones (THs); however, the genes controlling differentiation and the molecular effects of THs in the gonad are not clear and have only been investigated in a few anuran species. In this study, we established developmental profiles and TH regulation of sex steroid- and TH-related genes in the gonad-mesonephros complex (GM...
