High impact information on cyp17a1

  • We further examined the expression of P450c17 in the developing ovarian follicles [1].
  • Northern blot analysis demonstrated that it is predominantly expressed in the ovary and testis; however, a weak hybridization signal was also detected in the whole kidney of the zebrafish, suggesting a role for P450c17 in the steroidogenesis of both gonads and renal/interrenal tissues [1].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of cyp17a1

  • It is also of interest to note that when assayed by RT-PCR, the enzyme P450c17 also seemed to be expressed in several other non-gonadal tissues including the brain, gill, liver and intestine, and its expression did not show significant sexual dimorphism in the brain of adult zebrafish [1].
