Inhibitory effect and interaction of stanozolol with pig testicular cytochrome P-450 (17 alpha-hydroxylase/C17,20-lyase). 1989

S Nakajin, and K Takahashi, and M Shinoda

The inhibitory effect of an anabolic steroid, stanozolol, on testicular microsomal cytochrome P-450 (17 alpha-hydroxylase/C17,20-lyase) (P-450(17 alpha/lyase] and the nature of the interaction were compared with those of other anabolic steroids, furazabol and mestanolone. Stanozolol markedly inhibited delta 16-C19-steroid synthesizing activity, 17 alpha-hydroxylase and C17,20-lyase activities, which were mediated by oxygenase activities of testicular microsomal cytochrome P-450(17 alpha/lyase). In addition, stanozolol was a competitive inhibitor of 17 alpha-hydroxylase (Ki = 6.31 microM) and C17,20-lyase (Ki = 1.30 microM) activities in the reconstituted enzyme system. The interaction of cytochrome P-450&17 alpha/lyase) with stanozolol induced a type I difference spectrum (peak at 387 nm and trough at 418 nm) with a dissociation constant (Ks) of 1.47 microM.

D008861	Microsomes	Artifactual vesicles formed from the endoplasmic reticulum when cells are disrupted. They are isolated by differential centrifugation and are composed of three structural features: rough vesicles, smooth vesicles, and ribosomes. Numerous enzyme activities are associated with the microsomal fraction. (Glick, Glossary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1990; from Rieger et al., Glossary of Genetics: Classical and Molecular, 5th ed)	Microsome
D003577	Cytochrome P-450 Enzyme System	A superfamily of hundreds of closely related HEMEPROTEINS found throughout the phylogenetic spectrum, from animals, plants, fungi, to bacteria. They include numerous complex monooxygenases (MIXED FUNCTION OXYGENASES). In animals, these P-450 enzymes serve two major functions: (1) biosynthesis of steroids, fatty acids, and bile acids; (2) metabolism of endogenous and a wide variety of exogenous substrates, such as toxins and drugs (BIOTRANSFORMATION). They are classified, according to their sequence similarities rather than functions, into CYP gene families (>40% homology) and subfamilies (>59% homology). For example, enzymes from the CYP1, CYP2, and CYP3 gene families are responsible for most drug metabolism.
