BACKGROUND: Geraniol is a plant-derived phytochemical possessing anti-cancer action. The anti-carcinogenic effect of geraniol was investigated in the diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced hepatocarcinogenic rat model.METHODS: Male Wistar rats were intraperitoneally injected with 300 μL of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) (G1; n =...

Hydroxylation and sulfation of sex steroid hormones in inflammatory liver.

Journal of biomedical research

Lee SR, Lee SY, Kim SY, Ryu SY, Park BK, Hong EJ.
PMID: 28866654
J Biomed Res. 2017 Sep 26;31(5):437-444. doi: 10.7555/JBR.31.20170031.

Sex steroids, also known as gonadal steroids, are oxidized with hydroxylation by cytochrome P450, glucuronidation by UDP-glucuronosyltransferase, sulfation by sulfotransferase, andO-methylation by catechol O-methyltransferase. Thus, it is important to determine the process by which inflammation influences metabolism of gonadal...
