Abstract:

Steroids are a group of organic compounds that include sex hormones, adrenal cortical hormones, sterols, and phytosterols. In mammals, steroid biosynthesis starts from cholesterol via multiple steps to the final steroid and occurs in the gonads, adrenal glands, and placenta. This highly regulated pathway involves several cytochrome P450, as well as different dehydrogenases and reductases. Steroids in mammals have also been associated with drug production. Steroid pharmaceuticals such as testosterone and progesterone represent the second largest category of marketed medical products. There heterologous production through microbial transformation of phytosterols has gained interest in the last couple of decades. Phytosterols being the plants sterols serve as inexpensive substrates for the production of steroid derivatives. Various genes and biochemical pathways involved in phytosterol degradation have been identified in many Rhodococcus and Mycobacterium species. Apart from an early investigation in mammals, presence of steroids such as androsteroids and progesterone has also been demonstrated in plants. Their main role is linked with growth, development, and reproduction. Even though plants share some chemical features with mammals, the biosynthesis is different, with the first C22 hydroxylation as an example. This is performed by CYP11A1 in mammals and CYP90B1 in plants. Moreover, the entire plant steroid biosynthesis is not fully elucidated. Knowing this pathway could provide new processes for the industrial biotechnological production of steroid hormones in plants.

Abstract:

Steroids are components of the eukaryotic cellular membrane and have indispensable roles in the process of eukaryotic endocytosis by regulating membrane fluidity and permeability. In particular, steroids may have been a structural prerequisite for the acquisition of mitochondria via endocytosis during eukaryogenesis. While eukaryotes are inferred to have evolved from an archaeal lineage, there is little similarity between the eukaryotic and archaeal cellular membranes. As such, the evolution of eukaryotic cellular membranes has limited our understanding of eukaryogenesis. Despite evolving from archaea, the eukaryotic cellular membrane is essentially a fatty acid bacterial-type membrane, which implies a substantial bacterial contribution to the evolution of the eukaryotic cellular membrane. Here, we address the evolution of steroid biosynthesis in eukaryotes by combining ancestral sequence reconstruction and comprehensive phylogenetic analyses of steroid biosynthesis genes. Contrary to the traditional assumption that eukaryotic steroid biosynthesis evolved within eukaryotes, most steroid biosynthesis genes are inferred to be derived from bacteria. In particular, aerobic deltaproteobacteria (myxobacteria) seem to have mediated the transfer of key genes for steroid biosynthesis to eukaryotes. Analyses of resurrected steroid biosynthesis enzymes suggest that the steroid biosynthesis pathway in early eukaryotes may have been similar to the pathway seen in modern plants and algae. These resurrected proteins also experimentally demonstrate that molecular oxygen was required to establish the modern eukaryotic cellular membrane during eukaryogenesis. Our study provides unique insight into relationships between early eukaryotes and other bacteria in addition to the well-known endosymbiosis with alphaproteobacteria.

Abstract:

Although the involvement of 3-oxo-Δ4 compounds as intermediates in arthropod ecdysteroid biosynthesis has been postulated for a long time, it has not yet been directly demonstrated. In the present study, 3-oxo-Δ4-steroids have been synthesized and incubated in vitro with dissociated moulting gland cells from the crab Carcinus maenas. The tritiated compounds were converted into 3-dehydroecdysone, ecdysone and/or 25-deoxyecdysone, i.e. final ecdysteroids. This means that the 3-oxo-Δ4 compounds had undergone a 5β-reduction, to give the 5β-conformation of ecdysteroids. Our results suggest that the 3-oxo-Δ4-steroid 4,7-cholestadien-14α-ol-3,6-dione may be an intermediate in the biosynthetic pathway. The 5β-reduction reaction involves a cytosolic enzyme which requires NADPH as electron donor and seems specific for 3-oxo-Δ4 substrates. This reaction was the most active in crab Y-organs, as compared with other tissues. The characteristics of the 5β-reductase (subcellular localization, substrate and cofactor requirements) appear similar to those of the vertebrate 3-oxo-Δ4-steroid 5β-reductase involved in steroid hormone catabolism and bile acid biosynthesis.

Abstract:

Abstract This two-part presentation regarding acute regulation of steroid biosynthesis documents discovery of the StAR protein and resolves controversy regarding mitochondrial cholesterol transport. The acute regulation of steroid biosynthesis was known to require de novo synthesis of a regulator protein to mediate the transfer of cholesterol, the substrate for steroids, from the outer to the inner mitochondrial membrane where it was converted to pregnenolone by the cytochrome P450 side chain cleavage enzyme. We discovered a novel protein that was tightly correlated with steroid biosynthesis and had the requisite characteristics for the putative acute regulator of cholesterol transfer for steroid synthesis. Further studies confirmed that StAR protein is an indispensable component in the process of mitochondrial uptake of the cholesterol substrate for steroidogenesis. The translocator protein (TSPO) is a mitochondrial outer membrane protein suggested to import cholesterol to the inner mitochondrial membrane. However, it was demonstrated in vivo in Leydig cell specific TSPO conditional knockout mice that TSPO was not required for testosterone production or fertility. Similarly, global TSPO knockout (TSPO/-) mice were viable and fertile with fecundity equivalent to TSPO floxed (TSPOfl/fl) controls. Adrenal and gonadal steroidogenesis did not differ between TSPOfl/ fl and TSPO-/- mice. In vitro use of different steroidogenic cell line models (MA-10, MLTC, Y-1, H295R and R2C) demonstrated that siRNA-knockdown of TSPO did not affect steroidogenesis. Also, CRISPR/ Cas9-mediated TSPO deletion did not affect MA-10 cell steroidogenesis. These results directly 1) refute the suggestion that TSPO is indispensable for viability and steroid hormone biosynthesis; and, 2) substantiate the primal role of the StAR protein as the rate limiting factor in steroid hormone biosynthesis.

Abstract:

Sphingolipids modulate multiple cellular functions, including steroid hormone biosynthesis. Sphingosine is an antagonist ligand for the nuclear receptor steroidogenic factor 1 (SF-1), which is the primary transcriptional regulator of most steroidogenic genes. Furthermore, sphingosine-dependent repression of SF-1 function is dependent on the expression of acid ceramidase (ASAH1), an enzyme that forms sphingosine. Based on these data, I hypothesized that ACTH/cAMP signaling regulates ASAH1 function at both transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. In addition, because SF-1 is predominantly a nuclear protein, I postulated that ASAH1 modulates SF-1 function and, therefore, steroidogenic gene expression by controlling the nuclear concentrations of SPH. To test these hypotheses, I first examined the effect of chronic ACTH/cAMP signaling on the transcription of the ASAH1 gene. Next, the functional significance of ASAH1 expression in adrenocortical cells was probed by generating an ASAH1-knockdown cell line. I subsequently characterized the role of ASAH1 as a transcriptional nuclear receptor coregulator. Finally, I defined the role of sphingosine-1-phosphate, a bi-product of ASAH1 activity, in the acute phase of cortisol biosynthesis. Using a variety of experimental approaches, I identified cAMP response element binding protein as an essential transcriptional activator of the ASAH1 gene. Analysis of adrenocortical cells lacking ASAH1 revealed that ASAH1 is a global regulator of steroidogenic capacity. Furthermore, I identified ASAH1 as a nuclear protein and defined the molecular determinants of the interaction between ASAH1 and SF-1. Collectively, this body of work establishes the integral role of ASAH1 in the regulation of ACTH-dependent adrenocortical cortisol biosynthesis.

Abstract:

Gefährdete Spezies in Menschenobhut zu reproduzieren und zu erhalten soll dem weltweiten Rückgang zahlreicher Papageienarten entgegenwirken. Der Erfolg solcher Zuchtprogramme wird unter anderem durch begrenzte Kenntnisse über physiologische und pathologische Vorgänge im Fortpflanzungssystem dieser Vogelordnung erschwert. Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit war die Etablierung aussagekräftiger Parameter zur Einordnung des Reproduktionsstatus von männlichen Papageienvögeln. Dabei wurde ein Probenumfang fixierter, männlicher Reproduktionsorgane acht verschiedener Gattungen mit standardisierten histologischen und immunzytochemischen Methoden untersucht. Im Vordergrund stand die morphologische Beurteilung der untersuchten Gonaden im Bezug auf Fortpflanzungsaktivität und -status. Gleichzeitig sollten die immunzytochemischen Analysen Aufschluss über die beteiligten Hormone und Enzyme geben. Für die Etablierung vogel-spezifischer Marker wurde als Vertreter der Psittaciformes der Wellensittich (Melopsittacus undulatus, n=45) als Modellspezies ausgewählt. 15 verschiedene Antikörper aus der Gruppe der Steroidrezeptoren, steroidogenen Enzyme, Relaxinpeptide und Proliferationsmarker wurden an dieser Art getestet. Anschließend erfolgte der Transfer der erarbeiteten Methodik auf sieben weitere Papageiengattungen (Nymphicus, Eolophus, Cacatua, Psittacus, Amazona, Ara, Cyanopsitta). Anhand der Histologie konnten alle untersuchten Gonaden den drei verschiedenen Reproduktionsstadien aktiv, intermediär und inaktiv zugeordnet werden. Hierbei wurden Kriterien wie die Ausdehnung von Samenkanälchen und Interstitium, Morphologie des Keimepithels, Vorhandensein von Lipofuszin in den Samenkanälchen sowie die Teilungsaktivität von Keimzellen herangezogen. Aktive Hoden zeigen ausgedehnte Tubuli und ein schmales Interstitium, ein Keimepithel mit allen Keimzellstadien, wenig Lipofuszin und eine hohe Teilungsaktivität bei den Keimzellen. Inaktive Hoden hingegen besitzen schmale Tubuli und ein breites Interstitium, ein Keimepithel bestehend aus Sertoli-Zellen und Spermatogonien, Massen an Lipofuszin im Lumen der Samenkanälchen und eine geringe Proliferationsrate der Keimzellen. 14 der 15 getesteten Marker konnten mittels Immunzytochemie erfolgreich am Wellensittich etabliert werden. Hinsichtlich der Einordnung des Reproduktionsstatus war in erster Linie ein Absinken der steroidogenen Enzymaktivität von 3β-Hydroxysteroid-Dehydrogenase (HSD) und 17β-HSD-2 bei sexuell inaktiven gegenüber aktiven und intermediären Tieren zu verzeichnen. Auch der Androgenrezeptor (AR) wurde im Ruhestadium nicht mehr exprimiert. Die übrigen Steroidrezeptoren, steroidogenen Enzyme und Relaxinpeptide zeigten variable zelluläre Verteilungsmuster, die keine klare Aussage zum Fortpflanzungsstatus zuließen. Dennoch konnten anhand der Lokalisation dieser Faktoren in Keimzellen, somatischen Zellen des Hodens und Zellen des Nebenhodenepithels funktionelle Gesichtspunkte geklärt werden. Beispielsweise zeigte die Koexistenz des Östrogenrezeptors ERα und des steroidogenen Enzyms Aromatase in Hoden und Nebenhoden, dass nicht nur androgene Einflüsse in die Steuerung der Gonaden involviert sind. Auch der erstmalige Nachweis von Relaxin, Relaxin-like factor und ihren Rezeptoren in testikulären und epididymalen Zellen deutet darauf hin, dass diese die Funktion der beim Vogel nicht vorhandenen Prostata übernehmen. Zudem ist der Transfer der etablierten immunzytochemischen Methoden auf sieben weitere Papageiengattungen (Nymphicus, Eolophus, Cacatua, Psittacus, Amazona, Ara, Cyanopsitta) gelungen. Auch hier konnten 14 Marker in verschiedenen Zellen von Hoden und Nebenhoden sichtbar gemacht werden. Die teilweise heterogene Verteilung der Marker in verschiedenen Zelltypen war eindeutig spezies-abhängig. Dies hat gezeigt, dass die beim Wellensittich mittels Immunzytochemie erzielten Resultate nur eingeschränkt auf andere Papageienspezies übertragbar sind. Entscheidend für die Beurteilung des Reproduktionsstatus ist daher die individuelle Auswahl der Marker in Abhängigkeit von der untersuchten Spezies. Die Resultate dieser Studie liefern die Grundlage für weitere Forschungsansätze in der Reproduktionsdiagnostik von Papageienvögeln. Zum einen können die etablierten Marker in Analyse-Systemen zum Einsatz kommen, die nicht-invasiv gewonnene Medien (z. B. Faezes) untersuchen und vor allem in Zuchterhaltungsprogrammen bedrohter Arten hilfreich sind. Zum anderen ist die immunzytochemische Untersuchung von Hodenbioptaten pathologisch veränderter Hoden (z. B. Tumoren oder Entzündungen) als eine sinnvolle Ergänzung der Diagnostik von Infertilität bei männlichen Psittaziden anzusehen.

Abstract:

In this chapter, the current understanding of the mechanisms of endocrine disruption on the brain and nervous system are presented. Because the overwhelming majority of mechanistic studies on EDCs have focused on the actions mediated by nuclear hormone receptors, this mechanisms is described in detail. The chapter also discusses the classic transcriptional mechanisms of steroid action and the impact of EDCs on rapid signaling (non-genomic) mechanisms. It presents an overview of the enzymes and pathways involved in the biosynthesis of steroid hormones, which are critical to proper functioning of the HPA and HPG axis, and the neuroactive steroids synthesized and active in the mammalian brain. The potential for EDCs to alter metabolic enzymes, with a focus on possible targets in the metabolic blood-brain barrier, is presented as a potential, though largely unexplored, mode of EDC action in the brain.

Abstract:

Cholesterol is manufactured throughout the body, but predominantly in the liver, and is essential for many metabolic processes. Cholesterol plays a critical role in forming membranes and myelin sheaths and is a precursor molecule for the synthesis of steroid hormones, neuroactive steroids, oxysterols, and vitamin D. It is also essential in the production of bile acids, which in turn helps the body absorb cholesterol and fat-soluble vitamins. Cholesterol is essential in embryonic and fetal development and is also critical in regulating lipid raft processes such as signaling and trafficking (Korade & Kenworthy, 2008). Cholesterol biosynthesis begins with the formation of squalene and ends with the reduction of 7-dehydrocholesterol (7DHC) into cholesterol by the enzyme 7DHC reductase, and then its spontaneous isomer, 8-dehydrocholesterol (8DHC). Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS, Mendelian Inheritance in Man #270400) is an autosomal recessive disorder due to an inborn error of cholesterol biosynthesis (Elias et al., 1993; Irons, Elias, Salen, Tint, & Batta, 1993; Tint et al., 1994). Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome has an estimated incidence among individuals of European ancestry in Canada and the United States of 1 in 15,000 to 1 in 60,000 births (Bzdúch, Behulova, & Skodova, 2000; Lowry & Yong, 1980; Opitz, 1999; Ryan, Bartlett, Clayton, Eaton, Mills, Donnai, & Burn, 1998) and a carrier frequency of 1 in 30 to 1 in 50 (Nowaczyk & Waye, 2001).
