Patients with Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome have impaired ability to synthesize cholesterol due to attenuated activity of 7-dehydrosterol-delta(7)-reductase which catalyses the final step in cholesterol synthesis. Accumulation of 7- and 8-dehydrocholest

Gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric (GC/MS) analysis of maternal urine and serum steroids from 13 pregnancies at 25% risk for Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) was undertaken. All patients were between 12 and 31 weeks' gestational age From dehydro

Development of the male urogenital tract in mammals is mediated by testicular androgens. It has been tacitly assumed that testosterone acts through its intracellular metabolite dihydrotestosterone (DHT) to mediate this process, but levels of these an

Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) is a malformation syndrome associated with 7-dehydrocholesterol (7DHC) 7-reductase deficiency. Although SLOS can be detected in an affected fetus before midpregnancy by measurement of 7DHC levels in amniotic fluid or

The biosynthetic abnormality in Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) is a deficiency of 7-dehydrocholesterol (7DHC) reductase, the enzyme responsible for catalyzing the final step in the Kandutsch-Russell pathway for cholesterol synthesis. Because the d

A method for determining whether a pregnant woman with an extremely low serum oestriol (ELSE) measurement of mid-trimester is carrying a fetus with steroid sulphatase deficiency or another more serious disorder is described. We undertook GC/MS analys

We propose that in utero exposure to tobacco smoke products places a newborn at risk for persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN). To test this hypothesis, infants with PPHN were identified. Healthy newborns of similar ethnicity were i

Treatment of 19-[oxygenated]-androst-4-ene-3,17-dione with Mn(AcO) 3 and ClCH 2 COOH in benzene gave epimeric mixtures of the corresponding 2ξ-chloroacetates and 2ξ-acetates. The products were processed to give the title compound. For the synthesis

Current evidence is consistent with the view that biosynthesis of estrogens by human microsomal placental aromatase proceeds through several different pathways. One of the proposed mechanisms of aromatization of androgens involves the intermediacy of

The 16- 2H 2 title compound 5b constituted a significant amount of the non-aromatic metabolites recovered from incubations of 3,17-dioxo-[16,16,19- 2H 3]androst-4-en-19-al 1 with placental aromatase. For the evaluation of the role of compound 5b in t
