Disease relevance of 5SD

  • Preliminary studies of patients with hypospadias showed a significant (P less than 0.005) decrease in the production of "androstanedione" compared with that in normal subjects [1].
  • Epiandrosterone (EPIA), 5 alpha-androstane-3beta,17 beta-diol, and 5 alpha-androstane-3,17-dione were obtained after incubation of [4-14C]-5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone with Escherichia coli-expressed (3beta,17 beta)-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas testosteroni [2].
