A sensitive nonradiometric assay of aromatization of 16 alpha-hydroxylated androgens, 16 alpha-hydroxy-4-androstene-3,17-dione (16 alpha-OHA), and 16 alpha-hydroxytestosterone (16 alpha-OHT), has been developed using reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with voltametric detector. The estrogens produced by human placental microsomes, estriol (E3) and
The metabolism of 16 alpha-hydroxytestosterone by cytochrome P-450 system was studied with two different inductions. At least 5 different metabolites with higher polarity were produced from 16 alpha-hydroxytestosterone. MT-B, one of their products, appeared to be specifically increased by 3-methylcholanthrene-

Most, but not all, studies have found that women with a high urinary 2-hydroxyestrogen (2OHE) to 16alpha-hydroxyestrone (16alphaOHE1) ratio are at reduced risk for breast cancer and have a better prognosis. The aim was to identify factors associated with the

1. Steroids are known to act as permissive factors in hepatocytes. This study shows that dexamethasone (DEX) is a permissive factor for induction of CYP2B1/2, CYP3A1, CYP2A1 and probably also CYP2C11 in cultures with primary rat hepatocytes. 2. The induction

Under certain culture conditions human peripheral blood monocytes may be induced to express phenotypic markers of non-haematopoietic lineages, including hepatocyte-defining traits. One such example, the NeoHepatocyte, was previously shown to express a broad panel of hepatocyte-like marker antigens and metabolic
