Development of steroid sulfatase inhibitors [PDF]
Hydrolysis of biologically inactive steroid sulfates to unconjugated steroids by steroid sulfatase (STS) is strongly implicated in rendering estrogenic stimulation to hormone-dependent cancers such as those of the breast. Considerable progress has been made in the past two decades with regard to the discovery, design and development of STS inhibitors ...

Expression of Steroid Sulfatase during Embryogenesis* [PDF]
Neurosteroids are steroids that are synthesized de novo in the brain from cholesterol and, in general, mediate their effects through ion-gated channel receptors such as gamma-aminobutyric acidA (GABA[A]) and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors rather than through classical nuclear steroid hormone receptors.

Steroid Sulfatase Deficiency [PDF]
Placental steroid sulfatase deficiency is a genetic disorder only recently reported in the medical literature. Most documented cases of placental sulfatase deficiency have been marked by delay in onset of labor, lack of cervical dilatation, and relative refractoriness of oxytocic agents and amniotomy. We have studied the placenta, cultured fibroblasts,

Post-menopausal ovarian fibroma associated with steroid hormone synthesis: A case report
Objective: Ovarian fibromas are benign, sex cord-stromal tumors occurring in both peri- and post-menopausal women. Generally, these tumors are non-functional and do not produce hormones.

Steroid Sulfation in Neurodegenerative Diseases
Steroid sulfation and desulfation participates in the regulation of steroid bioactivity, metabolism and transport. The authors focused on sulfation and desulfation balance in three neurodegenerative diseases: Alzheimer´s disease (AD), Parkinson´s disease
