To study the serum levels of 19-hydroxyandrostenedione (19-OH-A), known as an obligatory intermediate of estrogen biosynthesis and considered to be one of the hypertensinogens, a method using GC-MS with application of synthesized [7,7-d2]androstenedione (A), [7,7-d2] 19-OH-A and [9,11-d2]estrone(E1) as internal

Ovaries from 18-21-day-old foetal as well as from 2-10-day-old infantile rats were cultured in vitro in the presence of [3H]19-hydroxyandrostenedione and in the presence or absence of LH, FSH or (Bu)2 cAMP, and oestrone and oestradiol formed were determined by
The present study was performed to clarify changes in plasma levels of 19-hydroxyandrostenedione (19-OH-AD), an amplifier of aldosterone and a possible hypertensinogenic steroid, during several tests for the renin-angiotensin system in 20 patients with aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) and to determine
We have reported that 19-hydroxyandrostenedione (19-OH-A-dione) functions as an amplifier of the sodium-retaining and hypertensive action of aldosterone. We therefore measured 19-hydroxyandrostenedione in hypertensive patients. We studied 53 normal male control subjects and 63 male patients with essential hypertension (48
The conversion of androgen to estrogen is mediated by aromatase activity, and 19-hydroxylase and C10-19lyase are seen to be involved in C19-demethylation. The present study is to demonstrate C10-19lyase activity in adrenal tissue. Fetal bovine and pig adrenal tissue homogenates
