Disease relevance of Cyp19a1

 

Psychiatry related information on Cyp19a1

  • In summary, our results suggest that differential regulation of aromatase mRNA expression during the critical period of sexual differentiation might, in part, account for the establishment of some of the many sexually dimorphic parameters of the rat brain [4].
  • Brain androgen-inducible aromatase is critical for adolescent organization of environment-specific social interaction in male rats [5].
  • These results suggest that testosterone induction of aromatase is critical for the organization of mature SI behavior in male rats over adolescent development [5].

Chemical compound and disease context of Cyp19a1

 

Biological context of Cyp19a1

  • The orphan nuclear receptor, liver receptor homolog-1 (LRH-1), is expressed in granulosa cells and has been shown to synergize with the cAMP signaling system to regulate the gonadal type II aromatase promoter in transient transfection assays [12].
  • Real-time PCR quantification revealed that aromatase mRNA levels varied during the estrous cycle and were significantly increased after ovariectomy [13].
  • Conversely, transforming growth factor (TGF) beta1 inhibited Cyp19 gene expression in a dose- and a time-dependent manner in both PS and RS [14].
  • The results demonstrate that exposure to either of these estrogens for 12 h allowed the subsequent FSH stimulation to produce high cellular proliferation, high aromatase enzyme activity, and large amounts of FSH receptor and aromatase mRNA [15].
  • We also report the isolation of cDNA clones encoding the rat aromatase P-450arom from a cDNA library prepared from this cell line [1].
 

Anatomical context of Cyp19a1

  • We conclude that the differential effects of FSH and LH on aromatase in immature granulosa cells are highly dependent on gonadotropin receptor density and on the signaling pathways activated [16].
  • Furthermore, in either TGFbeta1- or TNFalpha-treated germ cells, the addition of Dex stimulated the aromatase gene transcription [14].
  • Discrete aromatase immunoreactive cells were localized in primordial corpus cavernosum, corpus spongiosus and os penis, blood vessels and sensory corpuscle of glans penis [17].
  • The present study investigates the topography and time course of brain aromatase expression after experimental stroke (middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO)) [18].
  • Further, the peptide was, like FSH, also shown to stimulate aromatase activity in intact Sertoli cells from immature male rats in vitro [19].

Other interactions of Cyp19a1

  • Recent studies have shown that LRH-1 is even more highly expressed in the ovary, and LRH-1 has been implicated as a key transcriptional regulator of cytochrome P450 aromatase (P450arom) in vitro [27].
  • These results suggested that androgens regulate granulosa cell aromatase activity not only as substrates, but also by acting at a site before cAMP production (possibly at the level of the FSH receptor) in the control of FSH-induced enzyme activity [28].
  • Although aromatization of testicular androgens has been suggested to mediate the blockade of the 17-hydroxylase/C17-20 lyase step in adult testes, altered steady state levels of aromatase mRNA are not involved in this response [29].
  • Direct inhibitory effect of gonadotropin-releasing hormone upon follicle-stimulating hormone induction of luteinizing hormone receptor and aromatase activity in rat granulosa cells [30].
  • ACTH- and LH-positive adenomas were considered as controls; only multi-hormonal ACTH and LH tumors display aromatase-positive cells and all of these also contained prolactin-positive cells [2].
