The metabolism of [6,7-3H] estrone and of [6,7(3)H] estrone-3-sulfate have been comparatively studied in the maternal and fetal guinea-pig livers. The appearance of estradiol-17 beta resulting from the activity of the 17 beta-hydroxysteroid-dehydrogenase is more important in the fetal than in the maternal hepatic tissue. This suggests the direct transformation of estrone-3-sulfate into estradio-3-sulfate in the fetus. After incubation of the [3H] estrone, there is an abundant hepatic conjugation. The glycuroconjugated components are predominant, as well in the maternal as in the fetal hepatic tissue. For the latter-one the sulfoconjugation is inexistant. The sulfatasic activity shown after the incubation of [3H] estrone-3-sulfate is very low in the fetal hepatic tissue; in contrast, this activity is higher in the maternal tissue. 相似文献

7 beta, 17-Dimethyltestosterone (17 beta-hydroxy-7 beta, 17-dimethyl-4-androsten-3-one) (I) was given to three subjects in oral doses of 400 mg per day for ten days. The initial dose contained the steroid tritiated in the 6 and 7 positions. Plasma levels and urinary excretion patterns were followed in all three subjects. Isolations were done on the urine, plasma, and stools of one patient. From the urine 7 beta, 17-dimethyl- 5 alpha-androstane-3 beta,17 beta-diol (VI) was isolated from the nonhydrolyzed fractions. Unchanged (I), 7 beta,17-dimethyl-5 beta-androstane-3 alpha,17 beta-diol (III) and 7 beta, 17-dimethyl-5 beta-androstane-3 beta,17 beta-diol (IV) were isolated from the nonhydrolyzed and enzyme-hydrolyzed fractions. 7 beta,17-dimethyl-5 alpha-androstane-3 alpha,17 beta-diol (V) was isolated from the enzymatic fractions. From the stools were isolated unchanged (I), (III), (IV), (V), and (VI). Unchanged (I) and its 5 alpha-dihydro derivative (17 beta-hydroxy-7 beta,17-dimethyl-5 alpha-androstan-3-one) (II) were identified in the plasma. The total recovery of radioactivity in the one patient on whom the isolations were done was 57%; 40% from the urine and 17% from the stools. 相似文献

This paper describes a simple and convenient method for the preparation of tritiated mestranol and ethinylestradiol of high specific activity as a prerequisite in the development of the radioimmunoassay of the unlabelled compounds. Radioactive mestranol was prepared from estrone-6,7-3H (40 Ci/mmole) by methylation followed by ethinylation and purification by TLC. Radioactive ethinylestradiol could not be made from this mestranol by demethylation with boron tribromide, but it could be made directly from estrone-6,7-3H by ethinylation, removing the unreacted estrone by Girard's reagent T and purifying the product by TLC. Purities of these compounds were checked by TLC in two solvent systems and finally by the isotopic dilution technique. The specific activity of the final products was calculated by determining the loss of tritium during each step of reaction with a double isotopic method. 相似文献

A procedure for the assay of estrone, estradiol-17β or estradiol-17α in plasma is described. The technique also appears applicable to the assay of estriol in plasma. The procedure uses a semi-automatic extraction of plasma, rapid micro-alumina column chromatography and competitive binding of the estrogens to stable proteins of sheep uterine cytosol. The use of alumina column chromatography results in consistently low blanks. The assay has been evaluated for the measurement of estradiol-17β and estrone in human and sheep plasma, and for estradiol-17α and estrone in goat plasma. The change in binding affinity of estradiol-17α relative to estradiol-17β when incubated in sheep uterine cytosol at two different temperatures (25°C and 4°C), makes it possible to differentiate the two epimers of estradiol. Measurement of estradiol-17β down to 10 pg and of estrone and estradiol-17α to 25 pg are maintained in routine analyses. The specificity of the procedure was thoroughly checked by various methods, including comparison with spectrophotofluorimetric analysis. 相似文献

A series of 3-(alkylcarbamoyl)-2-aryl-1,2-dihydro-6,7-(methylenedioxy)-3H-quinazolin-4-ones, compounds 3-6, were synthesized, and screened as anticonvulsant agents in DBA/2 mice against sound-induced seizure (Table). The new compounds were found to display anticonvulsant properties inferior to those of the known dehydro congeners 1 and 2. The binding affinities of 1-6 at the AMPA and NMDA receptors were also evaluated. 相似文献

The mitotic inducer Cdc2 is negatively regulated, in part, by phosphorylation on tyrosine 15. Human Wee1 is a tyrosine-specific protein kinase that phosphorylates Cdc2 on tyrosine 15. Human Wee1 is subject to multiple levels of regulation including reversible phosphorylation, proteolysis, and protein-protein interactions. Here we have investigated the contributions made by 14-3-3 binding to human Wee1 regulation and function. We report that the interactions of 14-3-3 proteins with human Wee1 are reduced during mitosis and are stable in the presence of the protein kinase inhibitor UCN-01. A mutant of Wee1 that is incapable of binding to 14-3-3 proteins has lower enzymatic activity, and this likely accounts for its reduced potency relative to wild-type Wee1 in inducing a G(2) cell cycle delay when overproduced in vivo. These findings indicate that 14-3-3 proteins function as positive regulators of the human Wee1 protein kinase. 相似文献

Using recombinant sulfotransferases (SULTs) expressed in E. coli, β-estradiol (E2) sulfonation was examined to determine which SULT enzyme is responsible for producing E2-17-sulfate (E2-17-S). SULTs 1A1*1, 1A1*2, 1A3, 1E1 and 2A1 all sulfated E2 to varying extents. No activity was observed with SULT1B1. Among the SULTs studied, SULT2A1 produced primarily E2-3-sulfate (E2-3-S), but also some E2-17-S and trace amounts of E2 disulfate. SULT2A1 had a Km value of 1.52 μM for formation of E2-3-S and 2.95 μM for formation of E2-17-S. SULT2A1 had the highest Vmax of 493 pmol/min/mg protein for formation of E2-3-S, which was 8.8- and 47-fold higher than the maximal rates of formation of E2-17-S and E2 disulfate, respectively. SULT2A1 formed E2-3-S more efficiently. However, when celecoxib (0–160 μM) was included in the incubation with either SULT2A1 or human liver cytosol, sulfonation switched from E2-3-S to E2-17-S in a concentration-dependent manner. The ratio of E2-17-S/E2-3-S went up to 15 with SULT2A1, and was saturated at 1 with human liver cytosol. In both cases, more E2-17-S was formed, with the unreacted E2 remained unchanged, suggesting celecoxib probably bound to a separate effector site to cause a conformational change in SULT2A1, which favored production of E2-17-S. The ability of celecoxib to alter the position of sulfonation of E2 may in part explain its success in the experimental prevention and treatment of breast cancer. 相似文献

Delta5-3beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and estradiol-17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity in preimplantation hamster embryos 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Preimplantation golden hamster (Mesocricetus auratus) embryos were recovered on days 1 (= day of finding spermatozoa in the vagina) through 4 of pregnancy. Postimplantation embryos were studied in sectioned gestation sacs excised on days 5 and 6. Δ5-3β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3β-HSD) activity in embryos was determined histochemically. There was no enzyme activity on days 1 and 2. Weak activity was first observed at 08:00–09:00 hr on day 3, the activity then increased, peaked at 01:00–03:00 hr on day 4, considerably declined by 08:00–09:00 hr (day 4), and was absent on days 5 and 6. These results suggest that the preimplantation embryos synthesize steroid hormones. It was previously hypothesized (Dickmann and Dey, 1973, Dickmann and Dey, 1974) that, hormones synthesized by the preimplantation rat embryo participate in the regulation of morula to blastocyst transformation and implantation of the blastocyst. This hypothesis is applicable to the hamster.In addition to 3βHSD, estradiol-17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity was observed in day 3 embryos, suggesting that the embryo synthesizes estrogen. 相似文献
