Polymorphic variation in CYP19 and the risk of breast cancer [PDF]
The production of estrogen from androgen via the estrogen biosynthesis pathway is catalyzed by aromatase P450 (cyp19). We have assessed the frequency of allelic variants of the CYP19 intron 4 [TTTA]n repeat in 327 breast cancer cases and 253 controls from southern England. Previous studies have suggested that the [TTTA](10) repeat and [TTTA](12) repeat

Methadone: A Substrate and Mechanism-Based Inhibitor of CYP19 (Aromatase) [PDF]
The peripheral conversion of testosterone to estradiol by aromatase is the primary source of endogenous estrogen in postmenopausal women. Studies indicating that placental aromatase is able to metabolize methadone to its primary metabolite, 2-ethylidene-1, 5-dimethyl-3, 3-diphenylpyrrolidin (EDDP), led us to test the hypothesis that methadone is able ...

A polymorphic tetranucleotide repeat in the CYP19 gene and male breast cancer [PDF]
The CYP19 gene codes for the aromatase enzyme that is involved in the synthesis of oestrogens. This case-control study examines the relationship between a tetranucleotide repeat sequence in the CYP19 gene and the development of male breast cancer. No significant differences were found between male breast cancer cases and controls.

Genomic Structure of the Porcine CYP19 Locus and Expression of the CYP19A3 Paralog [PDF]
Proper, tissue-specific regulation of CYP19, the gene encoding aromatase, the key enzyme of estrogen synthesis, is essential for reproductive processes. Here, we analyzed transcriptional regulation of the porcine CYP19 in female and male gonads and brain by 5’RACE and RT-PCR and comprehensively mapped the pig CYP19 locus by in silico analysis. Our data

CYP19 and ESR2 polymorphisms as potential culprits in cryptorchidism
Cryptorchidism impairs sperm development and increases the risk of infertility and testicular cancer. Estrogen signalling is critical for proper descent of the testicles, and hormonal imbalances play a role in cryptorchidism. CYP19, also known as aromatase, encodes an enzyme that converts testosterone, a male sex hormone, into estradiol, the main form ...

CYP17 and CYP19 gene polymorphisms in women affected with endometriosis
To investigate whether CYP17 T>C polymorphism and polymorphisms C1558T and Val80 of CYP19 are related to endometriosis.Clinical study.Women affected with endometriosis (n = 104) and control group (n = 86). The diagnosis of endometriosis was confirmed by the histologic examination of the endometriotic lesions.In patients affected with endometriosis, we ...

Sex-Specific Gene Expression Ontogeny During Gonadal Development in Post-Metamorphic Xenopus tropicalis. [PDF]
Post‐metamorphic gonadal development in Xenopus tropicalis was analyzed through integrated morphometric, histological, and transcriptional approaches. Males showed upregulation of cyp17, amh, and amhr2, whereas females exhibited an increased aldh1a2 and ddx4.

Association between gynecomastia and aromatase (CYP19) polymorphisms [PDF]
ObjectiveAromatase cytochrome P45019 (CYP19) is a key enzyme in estrogen biosynthesis, and polymorphisms within its gene are associated with an increased risk of estrogen-dependent diseases. Enhanced estrogen stimulation of breast tissue in men may lead to gynecomastia.
