Role of Polymorphic Human Cytochrome P450 Enzymes in Estrone Oxidation - 0 views

  • CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 are not expressed in any significant quantity in the liver. Therefore, they would not be expected to contribute to the overall systemic metabolism of estrone. However, both enzymes have been identified in breast tissue
  • CYP1A1 displayed relatively high activity for all three hydroxylations, suggesting that it may play an important role in extrahepatic tissues where it is expressed
  • CYP1A1 was more active with regard to 2-hydroxylation and 4-hydroxylation, it also displayed one of the greatest 16α-hydroxylating activities of the CYP enzymes tested.

  • CYP1B1 displayed a high affinity for estrone and preferentially catalyzed 4-hydroxylation over 2-hydroxylation
  • CYP1B1 did not seem to contribute to 16α-hydroxylation.
  • CYP1B1 was shown to preferentially catalyze 4-hydroxylation, whereas CYP1A1 was shown to preferentially catalyze 2-hydroxylation
  • Among the CYP enzymes expressed in the liver, CYP1A2 was the most active with regard to 2-hydroxylation
  •  
    good discussion of estrogen metabolism and the P450 enzymes.

Cigarette smoking and hormones : Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynecology - 0 views

  • Epidemiologic studies worldwide have established that exposure to cigarette smoke is an important cause of estrogen deficiency.
  •  
    tobacco smoke alters estrogen metabolism.  Increase in CYP1B1 and CYP1B1 are the result of tobacco smoke.
