Rat Steroid 5α-Reductase Kinetic Characteristics: Extreme pH-Dependency of the Type II Isozyme in Prostate and Epididymis Homogenates

research Rat steroid 5α-reductase kinetic characteristics: Extreme pH-dependency of the type II isozyme in prostate and epididymis homogenates

13 citations , August 1995 in “The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology”

This study found that the pH dependency of rat steroid 5α-reductase type II isozyme significantly affects its kinetic properties, including Vmax and Km, suggesting past discrepancies in literature may arise from these pH variances during assays.

research PD23-01 INHIBITOR OF 5A-REDUCTASE TYPES II PROMOTES THE INFILTRATION OF CD8+T CELLS IN BPH TISSUES.

March 2014 in “The Journal of Urology”
