Serum and early-morning urinary levels of estrone sulfate during the menstrual cycle were measured by a direct radioimmunoassay without hydrolysis. These levels were high and showed prominent peaks [serum, 2.67 +/- 0.37 ng/ml (mean +/- SE); urine, 5.82 +/- 2.3 micrograms/l] around the day of the preovulatory estradiol-17 beta peak, and increased again during the luteal phase. Following intravenous injection of estrone sulfate, serum estrone sulfate, estrone and estradiol-17 beta were measured. The conversion of estrone sulfate to estrone and/or estradiol-17 beta was very small during their transit in the general circulation. 相似文献

Radioimmunoassay method for six steroids in human plasma 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A rodioimmunoassay method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of progesterone, 3β-hydroxy-5-pregnen-20-one, 3β-hydroxy-5-androsten-17-one, testosterone,estrone and estradiol in 2 ml plasma samples.The first three steroids are isolated on a celite:propylene glycol column (1:1 w/v),the latter three steroids on a celite:ethylene glycol column (2:1 w/v). Steroids obtained from individual chromatographic fractions are incubated for 40 min.with the appropriate antisera and labelled steroids and the bound and free fractions are separated by charcoal. Precision and accuracy studies have shown that the assays of all steroids are reproducible and accurate. Specificity studies carried out with 57 steroids,in conjunction with the accuracy experiments, indicate that a very high degree of specificity has been achieved. One possible exception may be the assay of 3β-hydroxy-5-pregnen-20-one. In this assay 3β-hydroxy-5α-pregnan-20-one,if present in plasma in appreciable amounts, would lead to an overestimation. 相似文献

Progesterone, estrone, estradiol-17 beta and corticosterone were quantified simultaneously for the first time in female American kestrel (Falco sparverius) plasma. A mean level for each hormone was determined for the laying and non-laying periods of the summer (April-September), and for February. Means were comparable to those of other wild avian species and were significantly higher for the laying period than for the other 2 periods. The mean corticosterone level for February was higher than that for the non-laying summer period. Plasma from laying kestrels, unlike that from other avian species, required lipid removal before column chromatography. Of 2 lipid removal techniques compared, i.e. the cold methanol and hexane:methanol techniques, the latter proved superior. 相似文献

Eight 2 year old Hereford cows from days 8 to 12 of the estrous cycle were injected intramuscularly with 5 ml of corn oil containing 5 mg of estradiol-17beta (two cows), estrone (two cows), progesterone (two cows) or testosterone (two cows). Each cow treated with estradiol received 494 microc of estradiol-17beta-6, 7 H3 and each cow treated with estrone received 492 microc of estrone-6, 7 H3. Each cow treated with progesterone or testosterone received 400 muc of H3 compound labeled in the 7 position. Total urine was collected by urethral catheterization of the cows treated with estrogens. Blood samples for plasma and serum were collected via jugular cannulae. Blood and urine samples from estrogen-treated cows were collected hourly for the first 24 hr, at 2 hr intervals for the next 26 hr, at 4 hr intervals for the next 12 hr and at 12 hr intervals until background was reached. Blood samples were collected hourly from 1 to 8 hr after injection from progesterone or testosterone-treated cows. Plasma and serum levels of radioactive estradiol-17beta, estrone, progesterone and testosterone were similar. Blood levels of radioactivity peaked at 2 hr post-injection in cows receiving estradiol-17beta and at 3 hr in cows receiving estrone. Blood levels of labeled estradiol-17beta and estrone were nondetectable by 54 hr and 83 hr, respectively. Peak urinary excretion of radioactivity was reached at 7 hr for estradiol-17beta and at 14 hr for estrone and nondetectable levels were reached by 95 hr for estradiol-17beta and 14 hr for estrone. At these times, 15.5% of the total dose of radioactive estradiol-17beta and 17.5% of the injected estrone had been excreted in the urine. Peak blood and urinary excretion levels were reached earlier for radioactive estradiol-17beta than for estrone, and excretion of estradiol-17beta was completed more rapidly. No difference was found in plasma and serum levels for any steroid studies; thus, endogenous steroid titers in blood plasma and serum are not different in the cow. 相似文献

The principal organelles of rat liver homogenates were fractionated by two-phase partition chromatography using toroidal-coil centrifugation with a mixture of dextran T 500 and poly(ethylene glycol) 6000 in 0.26 M-sucrose containing 10 mM-sodium phosphate/phosphoric acid buffer, pH 7.4. The effects of varying the following parameters on organelle elution profiles, as reflected by their marker-enzyme activities, were studied: centrifuge speed; the composition and relative proportion of dextran-rich and poly(ethylene glycol)-rich phases in the eluent; flow rate; sample volume; homogenate concentration; helix diameter; tubing bore and the number of loops in the coil. Optimal resolution of the organelles was achieved with a toroidal coil of internal diameter 1.07 mm with a 4.55 mm helix diameter on a 0.42 m-diameter rotor running at 1000 rev./min. The eluent was prepared by combining, in a ratio of 93:7 (v/v), the poly(ethylene glycol)-rich upper phase and dextran-rich lower phase obtained from a phase mixture containing 3.3% (w/w) dextran and 5.4% (w/w) poly(ethylene glycol). The flow rate of the eluent was 14ml/h. Optimal conditions for separation of the organelles were evaluated. Resolution of plasma membrane and lysosomes was achieved. Separation of endoplasmic reticulum, which showed marked heterogeneity, from plasma membrane was also demonstrated. DNA and marker enzymes for peroxisomes, mitochondria and cytosol showed distinct elution profiles. 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

Estrogens play a crucial role in multiple functions of the brain and the proper balance of inactive estrone and active estradiol-17beta might be very important for their cerebral effects. The interconversion of estrone and estradiol-17beta in target tissues is known to be catalysed by a number of human 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17beta-HSD) isoforms. The present study shows that enzyme catalysed interconversion of estrone and estradiol-17beta occurs in the human temporal lobe. The oxidative cerebral pathway preferred estradiol-17beta to Delta(5)-androstenediol and testosterone, whereas the reductive pathway preferred dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) to Delta(4)-androstenedione and estrone. An allosteric Hill kinetic for NAD-dependent oxidation of estradiol-17beta was observed, whereas a typical Michaelis-Menten kinetic was shown for NADPH-dependent reduction of estrone. Investigations of the interconversion of estrogens in cerebral neocortex (CX) and subcortical white matter (SC) preparations of brain tissue from 12 women and 10 men revealed no sex-differences, but provide striking evidence for the presence of at least one oxidative membrane-associated 17beta-HSD and one cytosolic enzyme that catalyses both the reductive and the oxidative pathway. Membrane-associated oxidation of estradiol-17beta was shown to be significantly higher in CX than in SC (P<0.05), whereas the cytosolic enzyme activities were significantly higher in SC than in CX (P<0.0005). Finally, real-time RT-PCR analyses revealed that besides 17beta-HSD types 4 and 5 also the isozymes type 7, 8, 10 and 11 show substantial expression in the human temporal lobe. The characteristics of the isozymes lead us to the conclusion that cytosolic 17beta-HSD type 5 is the best candidate for the observed cytosolic enzyme activities, whereas the data gave no clear answer to the question, which enzyme is responsible for the membrane-associated oxidation of estradiol-17beta. In conclusion, the study strongly suggests that different cell types and different isozymes are involved in the cerebral interconversion of estrogens, which might play a pivotal role in maintaining the functions of the central nervous system. 相似文献

Dual UV wavelength scanning at 206 and 254 nm was used to develop a sensitive, separation and quantitation procedure for estrone, estradiol-17β, testosterone, 4-androstene-3,17,-dione, progesterone and 17-hydroxyprogesterone using reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatography. The difference in UV absorption of the estrogens from the androgens and progestogens allows for correction of the co-elution of testosterone with estradiol-17β and 4-androsten-3,17,-dione with estrone. Incorporation of an isocratic step-gradient provides improved separation while maintaining shortened elution times for the less polar steroids. 相似文献

The effect of oligomers of ethylene glycol (EG) on thermotropic phase transitions of dipalmitoylglycerophosphatidylcholine multilamellar vesicles (DPPC-MLV) were investigated. Diethylene glycol (di-EG) had a biphasic effect on transition temperature, reducing pre-transition temperature (Tp) at low concentrations but increasing main transition temperature (Tm) and extinguishing pre-transition at high concentration. Results of the X-ray diffraction method and the excimer method indicated that di-EG induced interdigitated gel phase (L beta 1 phase) in the DPPC membranes at high concentration. Phase diagram of temperature-di-EG concentration for DPPC-MLV was determined by use of X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry, which was similar to that of temperature-EG concentration. The minimum concentration of di-EG where L beta 1 phase was induced was 42%(w/v), which was larger than that of EG (30%(w/v)). On the other hand, in the presence of triethylene glycol (tri-EG), Tm and Tp increased with an increased in tri-EG concentration, as well as poly(ethylene glycol). These differences, between the effects of di-EG and those of tri-EG, might be due to the differences of their sizes. 相似文献

Oxytocin receptors were measured in myometrium and intercaruncular endometrium of cows during pregnancy and parturition. Concentrations of estradiol-17 beta, estrone, and progesterone in peripheral blood were also measured. Receptor concentrations in the endometrium rose almost 200-fold from Day 20 to term (p < 0.0001, ANOVA), from 40 +/- 11 to 7300 +/- 1430 fmol/mg protein. Myometrial receptor concentrations increased 10-fold from 180 +/- 36 fmol/mg on Day 20 to 1850 +/- 360 fmol/mg protein at term (p < 0.0001, ANOVA). During labor, endometrial receptors (6600 +/- 1300 fmol/mg) remained at prelabor values, whereas myometrial receptor concentrations had decreased to 1190 +/- 316 fmol/mg (not significant) and declined further postpartum. Plasma concentrations of progesterone declined from 4-5 ng/ml to about 2 ng/ml between Days 250 and 282 and dropped to < 0.2 ng/ml shortly before delivery. Plasma concentrations of estrone and estradiol-17 beta were below 10-20 pg/ml until Day 230. Estrone concentrations were significantly (p < 0.05) increased by Day 250 and estradiol-17 beta by Day 270, and then both rose rapidly. During labor, plasma estrone was 1135 +/- 245 pg/ml and plasma estradiol-17 beta was 226 +/- 131 pg/ml. The molar ratio of estrone and estradiol-17 beta to progesterone rose from less than 0.01 to 4.4 during labor, and was correlated with oxytocin receptor concentrations in endometrium (r = 0.5160, p < 0.001), but not those in myometrium (r = 0.0122). The regulation of oxytocin receptors by ovarian hormones in the two tissues may therefore differ.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Following the constant infusion of 6, 7-3-H-estrone glucosiduronate in male dogs for a period of 120 minutes, the radioactive metabolites present in the plasma were separated by solvent partition, DEAE-Sephapadex, Celite partition and thin layer chromatography. The identities of the individual estrogens and estrogen conjugates were confirmed by specific activity determinations after chromatography in several different solvent systems, enzyme hydrolysis and steroids and their derivatives. Most of the radioactivity in the plasma was identified as estrone glucosiduronate. The major metabolite present was estradiol-17-beta-3-glucosiduronate. Small amounts of estradiol-17-alpha-3-glucosiduronate and free estrone were also identified. Three other minor conjugates were separated, but positive identification could not be made. 相似文献

[4--14C] Estrone was injected intramuscularly into six laying hens. Fifty minutes later the hens were exsanguinated. The plasmas were examined for conjugates of radioactive phenolic steroids by recovery on columns of Amberlite XAD-2 or by extraction with tetrahydrofuran followed by chromatography on a column of DEAE-Sephadex A-25 in a gradient of NaCl. The biggest Sephadex chromatographic fraction (50,4% of total) contained about 42% of its radioactivity as estradiol-17alpha-3-sulfate and 18% as estradiol-17beta-3-sulfate and the remaining 40% was identified tentatively as estradiol-17alpha-17-sulfate plus a small proportion of estradiol-17beta-17-sulfate. The second biggest Sephadex chromatographic fraction (12.7% of total) was a mixture of conjugates not further identified. Minor fractions identified comprised estrone-beta-glucuronide (2.8%), estradiol-17alpha-3-beta-glucuronide (2.8%), estradiol-17beta-3-beta-glucuronide (2.3%) and estrone sulfate (6.0%). Evidence was obtained for the presence of small proportions of estradiol-17alpha disulfate and estradiol-17beta disulfate. 相似文献

This paper presents characteristics of different polyclonal antisera raised against several steroid and protein antigens: 1/ primary antisera against steroid hormones: estradiol-17beta (anti-E2), estrone (anti-E1), testosterone (anti-T), androstendione (anti-A4), cortisol (anti-F) and corticosterone (anti-B); 2/ primary antisera against porcine luteinizing hormone (anti-pLH) and against different forms of porcine pregnancy associated glycoproteins (anti-pPAG) - proteins produced by chorionic tissue; 3/ secondary monovalent antisera raised against rabbit gamma-globulins (Sm-r); 4/ secondary polyvalent antisera against rabbit, pig and quinea pig gamma-globulins mixed at a ratio 1:1:1 (Sp-rpq). All antisera described in the paper present sufficient quality to be routinely used in various RIA, ELISA or Western determinations in physiological and clinical studies of reproductive processes. The antisera against steroid hormones and pLH are available on request. 相似文献

Solvent partitioning, column chromatography on activated alumina, and Ittrich extraction of Kober chromogens were employed to isolate, identify and quantitate estrone, estradiol-17B and estriol from blood of individual turkey hens. The intravaginal tetrazolium method was used to estimate the biological potencies of the three fractions separated chromatographically. The data show that estrone is the main estrogen present in heart blood of laying turkeys, with lesser amounts of estradiol-17B and estriol. Data are presented on the accuracy, precision, sensitivity, and specificity of the methodology used. 相似文献

Specific A-ring hydroxylated metabolites of 17beta-estrogens are known to be endogenous pro-carcinogens, more particularly the 4-hydroxylated forms of estrogens produced by cytochrome P4501B1. In this study, we investigated whether estradiol-17alpha, the main hepatic residue of estradiol-17beta in cattle treated for anabolic purposes with estradiol containing implants, could be significantly metabolized by human cells, and whether its aromatic metabolites could induce the formation of DNA adducts as estradiol-17beta and estrone do. First, using a human kidney adenocarcinoma cell line, which expresses specifically the cytochrome P4501B1, we showed that estradiol-17alpha is bioactivated into a mixture of 2- and 4-catechol estrogens leading to the corresponding methoxyestrogens unambiguously identified by LC-APCI-MS/MS. We then demonstrated that the 2- and 4-hydroxylated derivatives of estradiol-17alpha incubated under oxidative conditions with calf thymus DNA gave stable DNA adducts and abasic sites, respectively. From these results, we can consider that human cells expressing CYP1B1-dependent hydroxylation activities metabolize estradiol-17alpha at the same magnitude as estradiol-17beta and estrone, and that in oxidative conditions, the resulting aromatic metabolites can lead to the formation of both stable and unstable DNA adducts. 相似文献

Human placental estradiol-17beta dehydrogenase is rapidly inactivated upon treatment with 3-bromoacetoxyestrone. Pseudo-first order kinetic data are obtained and inactivation is accompanied by incorporation of 1 mol of 3-acetoxyestrone/mol of subunit (Mr =34,000). Treatment of the inactivated enzyme with (4S)-[4-2H]DPNH results in the formation of covalently bound [17alpha-2H]estradiol-17beta, which can be released by hydrolysis and identified by gas chromatography-mass sepctrometry. When (4R)-[4-2H]DPNH was used, deuterium was not transferred. Thus, the normal stereochemistry of hydridetransfer is preserved for both partners. After treatment with p-mercuribenzoate, affinity-labeled estradiol-17beta dehyrogenase is no longer able to caralyze reduction its covalently bound estrone; in the presence of DPNH and native enzyme, however, reduction occurs, demonstrating that affinity-labeled enzyme can itself serve as subtrate for native estradiol-17beta dehydrogenase. The reversible enzymatic interconversion of covalently bound estrone was demonstrated using a transhydrogenase assay. The ability of an enzyme to catalyze its normal reaction with a covalently bound substrate is termed catalytic competence, and is considered to be a new criterion for affinity labeling. 相似文献

Steroid sulfatase and 17 beta-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase activities in mouse tissues 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The metabolism of estrone sulfate and dehydroisoandrosterone sulfate to the free, unconjugated steroids, estrone and dehydroisoandrosterone, was demonstrated in more than thirty different tissues from male and female BALB/c mice. The activity of steroid sulfatase, when expressed per mg tissue, was greatest in both the pituitary gland and the adrenal glands. The pituitary gland, however, had the lowest capacity for hydrolysis of steroid sulfates while the liver had the greatest capacity. 17 beta-Hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase activity also was demonstrated in all mouse tissues by the formation of estradiol-17 beta when using estrone sulfate as the substrate. The highest apparent activity for 17 beta-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase was found in lung tissue, and the greatest capacity to form estradiol-17 beta from estrone sulfate was found in liver, lungs, kidneys and testes. This study demonstrates that the majority of mouse tissues have steroid sulfatase and 17 beta-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase activities. 相似文献

The synthesis of polar aldosterone metabolites by rat liver microsomes at physiological concentrations of aldosterone (21.5 nM), was markedly inhibited by progesterone, testosterone, corticosterone, K+-canrenoate and estradiol-17 beta. In contrast, corticosterone and estradiol-17 beta significantly increased the synthesis of reduced aldosterone metabolites by 8- and 15-fold respectively, the majority of which were 5 alpha-reduced products of aldosterone. In experiments at higher substrate (aldosterone) concentrations (20-200 microM) the synthesis of ring A-reduced aldosterone metabolites by liver microsomes followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics with a Km[app] for aldosterone of 160 microM and Vmax[app] of 12.2 nmoles/mg protein/5 min. In these experiments progesterone, testosterone and K+-canrenoate all competitively inhibited the synthesis of reduced metabolites with inhibition constants (Ki [app]) of 70, 85 and 55 microM respectively; however, corticosterone did not. In contrast, estradiol-17 beta increased the rate of synthesis of reduced products by 40%, lowering the Km[app] to 83 microM. 相似文献

The in vitro uptake of 2,4,6,7-tritiated estradiol-17beta in uterine eosinophils of the rat was inhibited by the presence of nonradioactive estradiol-17beta, estrone, and estriol, but not by progesterone, testosterone, or corticosterone. This action is attributed to competition between tritiated estradiol and the various estrogenic compounds for the same binding site. Compounds without any estrogenic activity do not compete. The proposal is made that the eosinophil binding system and the 8S-5S binding system are involved in different mechanisms of estrogen action. The parallelism between the doses of estradiol and estriol needed to promote certain estrogenic early effects in the uterus, and the affinity of these steroids for the eosinophil uptake sites, suggests that uterine eosinophils might be responsible for some of these early effects, such as water imbibition, histamine releasing activity, and estrogen priming effect. 相似文献

[4-14C]Estrone was injected intramuscularly into two mature laying Rhode Island Red hens. Radioactive steroids and steroid conjugates recovered from the urine on Amberlite XAD-2 columns were fractionated on columns (100 cm) of DEAE-Sephadex A-25 by NaCl gradients. The presences of the following were confirmed, the figures in brackets indicating average proportions as per cent of total radioactivity recovered after Sephadex column chromatography: -the 3-β-glucuronides of estrone (10. 9) and of estradiol-17α plus estradiol-17β(9.8); the 17-β-glucuronides of estradiol-17α plus estradiol-17β (2.1); the 3-sulfates of estrone (14. 5) and of estradiol-17α plus estradiol-17β (27. 4); and the disulfates of estradiol-17α plus estradiol-17β (2. 3). The following additional conjugates were identified:-a β-glucuronide of 16-epiestriol (0.2) and a β-glucuronide of 16-ketoestradiol-17β (0. 2); the 3-sulfates of 16-epiestriol (1. 4), of 17-epiestriol (0. 9), of 16, 17-epiestriol (0. 7), of 16-keto-estradiol-17β (1. 1), and of 2-methoxyestrone (0. 7). Some evidence was obtained for the presence of 16, 17-epoxy-estratrienol-3-sulfate (1.9). 相似文献
