Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine isoform 17betaHSD6 is expressed in estrogen receptor beta-positive epithelial cells of the human prostate. In prostate cancers of Gleason grade higher than 3, both estrogen receptor beta and isoform 17betaHSD6 are undetectable Homo sapiens

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 6 converts the androgen 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone to the estrogen 5alpha-androstane-3beta,17beta-diol, and this leads to activation of the estrogen receptor beta reporter. This conversion of dihydrotestosterone occurs at concentrations that are in the physiological range of this hormone in the prostate Homo sapiens
