Frequencies of the D85 and Y85 variants of UGT2B15 in children and adolescent girls with hyperandrogenism.

Journal of pediatric endocrinology & metabolism : JPEM - 1 Jun 2003

Tomboc Marlah, Witchel Selma Feldman

Abstract excerpt

Premature pubarche (PP) appears to be a risk factor for the subsequent development of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) during or after puberty. The clinical manifestations due to hyperandrogenism are influenced by androgen production, androgen metabolism, and androgen receptor activity. Glucuronidation by the UDP-glucuronyltransferase 2B (UGT2B) family of enzymes is one mechanism through which androgens are...
