Cytochrome P450 17alpha-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase (CYP17) is a microsomal enzyme catalyzing two distinct activities, 17alpha-hydroxylase and 17,20-lyase, essential for the biosynthesis of adrenal and gonadal steroids. CYP17 is a potent oxidant, it is present in liver and nonsteroidogenic tissues, and it has been suggested to have catalytic properties distinct to its function in steroid metabolism...
In the present study, we investigated the relationship between polymorphisms in the estrogen-metabolizing genes CYP17, CYP1B1, CYP1A1, and COMT and genomic instability in the peripheral blood lymphocytes of 62 BC patients and 62 controls considering that increased or prolonged exposure to estrogen can damage the DNA molecule and increase the genomic instability process in breast tissue. Our dat...
The clinical utility of inhibiting cytochrome P450 17A1 (CYP17), a cytochrome p450 enzyme that is required for the production of androgens, has been exemplified by the approval of abiraterone for the treatment of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Recently, however, it has been reported that CYP17 inhibitors can interact directly with the androgen receptor (AR). A phase I study recent...
The enzyme P450c17 is required for glucocorticoid, sex steroid, and some neurosteroid biosynthesis. Defective human P450c17 causes sexual infantilism and 46,XY sex reversal but is compatible with life, whereas ablation of the corresponding mouse gene causes embryonic lethality at around E7. Normal mouse embryos express P450c17 protein and activity in the embryonic endoderm at E7. Adult adrenal ...
Among women, the A2 allele of CYP17 has been associated with elevated levels of endogenous steroid hormones; however, it does not seem to be a strong independent risk factor for breast cancer. We assessed the association between the A2 allele of CYP17 and invasive endometrial cancer risk in a case-control study nested within the Nurses' Health Study cohort (cases: n = 184; controls: n = 554). W...
In our previous study, we have investigated the serum levels of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) in type II collagen (CII)-induced arthritis (CIA) mice. During the study, we found that in normal control mice, serum levels of DHEA in the latter half of the experimental period (13-16 weeks old) were significantly lower than those at the beginning of the experiment (10 weeks old). However, in CIA mic...
We report here a molecular modeling investigation of steroidal and nonsteroidal inhibitors of human cytochrome P450 17alpha-hydroxylase-17,20-lyase (CYP17). Using the pharmacophore perception technique, we have generated common-feature pharmacophore model(s) to explain the putative binding requirements for two classes of human CYP17 inhibitors. Common chemical features in the steroid and nonste...
BACKGROUND A thymidine to cytosine transition (designated A2 variant) in the promoter region of CYP17 has previously been associated with a familial history of prostate cancer in North American families. The purpose of the present study was to determine whether this correlation could be replicated in a European population. MATERIALS AND METHODS Case-control comparisons were performed by model...
This study was conducted in the Ruminants Research Station, Office of Agricultural Research/ Ministry Agriculture- Iraq to detect CYP17 gene polymorphisms Local and Shami goat, as well establish if SNPs could be associated with some productive reproductive traits such total milk yield (TMY) its components, addition which included litter size fertility. An important single nucleotide (SNPs) (G22...
