  3. 7. Steroid-Metabolizing Cytochrome P450 (CYP) Enzymes in the Maintenance of Cholesterol and Sex Hormone Levels

    Författare :Hanna Pettersson; Maria Norlin; Kjell Wikvall; Paolo Parini; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; CYP27A1; CYP7B1; cytochrome P450; estrogen receptor; androgen receptor; cholesterol; sex hormone; hydroxylation; steroid metabolism; regulation of steroid levels; Pharmaceutical biochemistry; Farmaceutisk biokemi; Farmaceutisk biokemi; Pharmaceutical Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : The enzymes CYP27A1 and CYP7B1 are widely expressed in various human tissues and perform catalytic reactions in cholesterol homeostasis and endocrine signaling. We have investigated the metabolism of a synthetic oxysterol. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Catalytic Properties and Tissue Distribution of Cytochrome P450 4F8 and 4F12 : Expression of CYP4F8 in Eye Tissues and Psoriatic Lesions

    Författare :Katarina Stark; Ernst H Oliw; Leif Bertilsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmaceutical pharmacology; Arachidonic acid metabolism; Cytochrome P450; 19-Hydroxyprostaglandins; Immunohistochemistry; Ocular tissues; Psoriasis; Farmaceutisk farmakologi; Pharmaceutical pharmacology; Farmaceutisk farmakologi;

    Sammanfattning : The human cytochrome P450 (CYP) family of monooxygenases is important for metabolism of drugs and endogenous compounds, e.g., vitamin A and D, cholesterol, steroids, fatty acids, and eicosanoids. This thesis describes the tissue distribution, catalytic properties, and possible function of CYP4F8 and CYP4F12. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Pharmacogenetics of human cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) enzymes

    Författare :Anna Westlind Johnsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) subfamily encompasses the most important CYP enzymes with respect to drug metabolism, in particular CYP3A4. responsible for the metabolism of a majority of drugs being metabolized in order to be excreted. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Spectroelectrochemistry of Redox Enzymes

    Författare :Andreas Christenson; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Elektrokemi; Electrochemistry; complex II; bilirubin oxidase; laccase; enzyme mechanism; redox potential; electron transfer; spectroelectrochemistry; redox enzymes; Spectroelectrochemical cell;

    Sammanfattning : A low volume and long optical path spectroelectrochemical cell was constructed and tested in a number of applications such as detection of direct electron transfer (DET) between redox enzymes and gold electrodes, determination of the formal potentials of redox centres in proteins and enzymes, as well as mechanistic studies of heterogeneous and intermolecular electron transfer of copper oxidases and succinate:quinine oxidoreductase (Complex II). The existence of DET between enzymes and electrodes was demonstrated for theophylline oxidase, cytochrome P450 cam, laccase, bilirubin oxidase, sulphite oxidase and Complex II. LÄS MER
