Immunolocalization of steroidogenic enzymes in the vaginal mucous of Galea spixii during the estrous cycle. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BackgroundThe synthesis of sex steroids is controlled by several enzymes such as17α-hydroxylase cytochrome P450 (P450c17) catalyzing androgen synthesis and aromatase cytochrome P450 (P450arom) catalyzing estrogen synthesis, both of which must complex ...

Liver cytochrome P450-hydroxylation system of tumor-bearing rats under the influence of ?-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and vitamin D(3)

open access: yesThe Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2018
The study was performed to investigate the effects of the separate and combined action of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 PUFAs) and vitamin D3 on the activity of the components of the oxygenase and reductase chains of the monooxygenase system ...

Mutations in TAC1B: a Novel Genetic Determinant of Clinical Fluconazole Resistance in Candida auris

open access: yesmBio, 2020
Candida auris has emerged as a multidrug-resistant pathogen of great clinical concern. Approximately 90% of clinical C. auris isolates are resistant to fluconazole, the most commonly prescribed antifungal agent, and yet it remains unknown what mechanisms

Regulation of 3β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase/∆5-∆4 Isomerase: A Review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This review focuses on the expression and regulation of 3β-hydroxysteroi ddehydrogenase/Δ5-Δ4 isomerase (3β-HSD), with emphasis on the porcine version. 3β-HSD is often associated with steroidogenesis, but its function in the metabolism of both steroids ...

Hepatic cytochromes P450: structural degrons and barcodes, posttranslational modifications and cellular adapters in the ERAD-endgame. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-anchored hepatic cytochromes P450 (P450s) are enzymes that metabolize endo- and xenobiotics i.e. drugs, carcinogens, toxins, natural and chemical products.

Cytochrome P450-Activated Prodrugs [PDF]

open access: yesFuture Medicinal Chemistry, 2013
A prodrug is a compound that has negligible, or lower, activity against a specified pharmacological target than one of its major metabolites. Prodrugs can be used to improve drug delivery or pharmacokinetics, to decrease toxicity, or to target the drug to specific cells or tissues.

The catalytic function of cytochrome P450 is entwined with its membrane-bound nature [version 1; referees: 4 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2017
Cytochrome P450, a family of monooxygenase enzymes, is organized as a catalytic metabolon, which requires enzymatic partners as well as environmental factors that tune its complex dynamic.
