Data suggest that CYP17A1 and aromatase/Cyp19a1 are induced in hippocampus by the environmental pollutant/retinoid X receptor agonist tributyltin; thus, tributyltin appears to stimulate estradiol biosynthesis.

Data from a rat model of polycystic ovary syndrome suggest that hyperandrogenism develops and this may partially up-regulate expression of steroidogenic enzymes (CYP17 and P450scc [cholesterol side-chain cleavage enzyme]) in ovarian tissue.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
