Published in 2022 at "Biochemistry"

DOI: 10.1021/acs.biochem.2c00023

Abstract: The multifunctional cytochrome P450 17A1 (CYP17A1) plays a crucial role in human steroid hormone synthesis (UniProtKB─P05093). It first carries out standard monooxygenase chemistry, converting pregnenolone (PREG) and progesterone (PROG) into 17OH-PREG and 17OH-PROG, utilizing a… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Oncogenesis"

DOI: 10.1038/oncsis.2017.31

Abstract: Steroidogenesis-mediated production of neurosteroids is important for brain homeostasis. Cytochrome P450 17A1 (CYP17A1), which converts pregnenolone to dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) in endocrine organs and the brain, is required for prostate cancer progression and acquired chemotherapeutic resistance.… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-40755-8

Abstract: Hypospadias (HS) is a common congenital malformation of the genitourinary tract in males and its etiology is viewed as multifactorial, and studies about gene-environment interaction in the etiology of HS are rare. A total of… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Animal genetics"

DOI: 10.1111/age.12977

Abstract: Cryptorchidism is the most common disorder of sex development in dogs and testosterone plays a crucial role in the inguinal phase of the testes descending into the scrotum. The molecular background of impaired testosterone synthesis… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Frontiers in Genetics"

DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2019.00996

Abstract: Background: Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) encompasses a group of autosomal recessive diseases characterized by enzyme deficiencies, within steroid hormone anabolism, which lead to disorders in cortisol synthesis. The 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase deficiency (17-OHD) is an uncommon form… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Biomolecules"

DOI: 10.3390/biom12020165

Abstract: Twenty new compounds, targeting CYP17A1, were synthesized, based on our previous work on a benzimidazole scaffold, and their biological activity evaluated. Inhibition of CYP17A1 is an important modality in the treatment of prostate cancer, which… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Cancers"

DOI: 10.3390/cancers11091378

Abstract: Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 17A1 is an important steroidogenic enzyme harboring 17α-hydroxylase and performing 17,20 lyase activities in multiple steps of steroid hormone synthesis, including dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) biosynthesis. Previously, we showed that CYP17A1-mediated DHEA production clearly… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "eLife"

DOI: 10.7554/elife.66118

Abstract: Disruption of androgen signaling is known to cause testicular malformation and defective spermatogenesis in zebrafish. However, knockout of cyp17a1, a key enzyme responsible for the androgen synthesis, in ar-/- male zebrafish paradoxically causes testicular hypertrophy… read more here.
