Human 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17β-HSD) type 1 is an enzyme that acts at the pre-receptor level. It catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of the weak estrogen estrone into the most potent estrogen 17β-estradiol, which exerts prol…

The human aldo-keto reductases 1C1 and 1C3 (AKR1C1 and AKR1C3) are important 20-ketosteroid reductases in pre-receptor regulation of progesterone action. Both AKR1C1 and AKR1C3 convert progesterone to the less potent metabolite 20α-hydroxyp…
