Disease relevance of HSD17B4

  • Patients previously diagnosed as cases of L-bifunctional protein deficiency probably should be reexamined for a possible d-bifunctional protein deficiency [1].
  • METHODS: To improve early recognition, diagnosis, prognosis, and management of this disorder and to provide markers for life expectancy, we performed extensive biochemical studies in a large cohort of D-bifunctional protein-deficient patients and sent out questionnaires about clinical signs and symptoms to the responsible physicians [2].
  • In bivariate analysis, birth weight was positively associated with SBP (beta = 0.87) and DBP (beta = 1.14) in black children (P < 0.001) but not associated with either in white children [3].
  • After 50 weeks of therapy with delapril/manidipine 30mg/10mg once daily, mean SBP/DBP was reduced by 22/14mm Hg in patients with mild to moderate hypertension (n = 309) [4].
  • We previously found that di-butyl phthalate (DBP) has an adjuvant effect in a mouse contact hypersensitivity model, in which fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) is involved as an immunogenic hapten [5].
 

Psychiatry related information on HSD17B4

  • RESULTS: Systolic BP (SBP) was linearly related significantly to BMI and alcohol consumption, whereas diastolic BP (DBP) was related to age [6].
  • The UV/TiO(2)/glass process yielded a 75% degradation efficiency of DBP with initial concentration of 5mgL(-1) at 80min reaction time [7].
 

High impact information on HSD17B4

 

Chemical compound and disease context of HSD17B4

  • Phthalate esters with short alkyl chains, such as di-ethyl (DEP), di-n-propyl (DPP), and di-butyl phthalate (DBP), have adjuvant effects on an FITC-induced contact hypersensitivity mouse model [12].
 

Biological context of HSD17B4

  • The HSD17B4 gene consist of 24 exons and 23 introns with classical intron-exon junctions spanning more than 100 kbp [13].
  • Recombinant human PTS1 binding protein Pex5p interacted with the bacterially expressed C-terminal domain of the HSD17B4 gene product [14].
  • Subsequent mutation analysis showed that both patients are homozygous for a missense mutation (N457Y), which is located in the enoyl-CoA hydratase coding part of the D-bifunctional protein gene [9].
  • A nonfunctional version of MFE2 did not restore normal peroxisome morphology to mfe2-KO cells, indicating that their phenotype is not due to the absence of MFE2. mfe2-KO cells contain higher amounts of beta-oxidation enzymes than do wild-type cells [15].
  • Gly(16) and Gly(329) of the S. cerevisiae A and B domains, corresponding to Gly(16), which is mutated in the human MFE-2 deficiency, were mutated to serine and cloned into the yeast expression plasmid pYE352 [16].
 

Anatomical context of HSD17B4

  • The HSD17B4 gene codes for a 80 kDa multifunctional enzyme containing three distinct functional domains and is localized in peroxisomes [13].
  • The contents of the L- and D-bifunctional proteins were about 0.01 and 0.5 microg/mg protein, respectively, in cultured human skin fibroblasts [17].
  • Upon sensitization in the presence of DBP or DPP, the number of FITC-positive dendritic cells (total CD11c(+) as well as CD11c(+)/CD11b(+)) was increased in draining lymph nodes [5].
  • Protein kinase C activation therefore appears to dissociate the expression of aromatase and 17 beta-HSD 4 in this differentiation stage along the monocyte/phagocyte pathway of THP 1 myeloid cells [18].
  • CONCLUSIONS: In patients without glaucoma, the DBP <90 mm Hg that results from antihypertensive treatment is associated with increased cupping and decreased rim area of the optic disk [19].
 

Associations of HSD17B4 with chemical compounds

  • The HSD17B4 gene is stimulated by progesterone, and ligands of PPARalpha (peroxisomal proliferator activated receptor alpha) such as clofibrate, and is down-regulated by phorbol esters [20].
  • Characterization of the HSD17B4 gene: D-specific multifunctional protein 2/17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase IV [13].
  • beta-Oxidation of amino acyl coenzyme A (acyl-CoA) species in mammalian peroxisomes can occur via either multifunctional enzyme type 1 (MFE-1) or type 2 (MFE-2), both of which catalyze the hydration of trans-2-enoyl-CoA and the dehydrogenation of 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA, but with opposite chiral specificity [21].
  • We propose that, among the reactions of the distinct group of carboxylates oxidized specifically in peroxisomes, oxidation of 2-methyl-branched fatty acids and side-chain shortening of cholesterol for bile acid formation are catalyzed by the D-bifunctional protein, but not the L-bifunctional protein [17].
  • The activity of conversion of hexadecenoyl-CoA to 3-ketopalmitoyl-CoA by the D-bifunctional protein was estimated to be about 0.5 milliunit/mg of fibroblast protein [17].
