Application

Pooled S9 fractions from liver have been used for genotoxicity experiments.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The hepatic S9 pools from a variety of biological sources represent the post-mitochondrial supernatant fraction from homogenized liver. Known to be a rich source of drug metabolizing enzymes including P-450, these pools are useful in the study of xenobiotic metabolism and drug interactions.

They are used in the Ames test, which is a method that uses bacteria to test if a given chemical causes mutations in the genetic material of a given test organism.

The mechanism by which human labor is initiated in the presence of elevated circulating progesterone levels remains unknown. Recent evidence indicates that the progesterone-metabolizing enzyme, 20α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (20α-HSD), encoded by the gene AKR1C1, may contribute to functional progesterone withdrawal. We
