17β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/17-ketosteroid reductase (17HSD/KSR) activity and 17HSD/KSR types 1, 2, 4, and 5 mRNA levels were characterized in ovarian cancer cell lines derived from patients unexposed to radiation or chemotherapy. Activity was

Cnidarians occupy a key evolutionary position as a sister group to bilaterian animals. While cnidarians contain a diverse complement of steroids, sterols, and other lipid metabolites, relatively little is known of the endogenous steroid metabolism or

Anti-estrogen therapies for treating ovarian carcinoma have had mixed outcomes suggesting some tumors may be estrogen-dependent. We assayed the activity levels of 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17beta-HSD), 3beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3

Epidemiologic data suggest a relationship between dietary intake of phytochemicals and a lower incidence of some cancers. Modulation of steroid hormone metabolism has been proposed as a basis for this effect. It has been shown that aromatase, 3beta-h

Estrogens and androgens are steroids that act as reproductive hormones in vertebrates. These compounds have also been detected in reef-building corals and other invertebrates, where they are hypothesized to act as bioregulatory molecules. Experiments

17beta-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/17-ketosteroid reductases (17HSD/KSR) play a key role in regulating steroid receptor occupancy in normal tissues and tumors. Although 17HSD/KSR activity has been detected in ovarian epithelial tumors, our understan

Sex steroid hormones are thought, among several other risk factors, to play a role in liver malignancies. For example, from epidemiological studies in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a clear disadvantage for male sex is evident. In addition, elevated

Progesterone and estradiol are the most potent human sex steroid hormones of placental origin and are essential to the maintenance of pregnancy, the timing of parturition, the maturation of many fetal organs, and the preparation of the maternal repro

The 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17betaHSD) enzyme system governs important redox reactions at the C17 position of steroid hormones. Different 17betaHSD types (no. 1-4) have been identified to date in peripheral human tissues, such as placent

Although there is a growing body of evidence that 17β-hydroxysteroid oxidoteductase plays a role the regulation of steroid levels in epithelial tumors of the endometrium and breast, out knowledge of its role in other gynecologic tumors is limited. I
