Disorders in the initial steps of steroid hormone synthesis.

The Journal of steroid biochemistry and molecular biology - 1 Jan 2017

Miller Walter L

Abstract excerpt

Steroidogenesis begins with cellular internalization of low-density lipoprotein particles and subsequent intracellular processing of cholesterol. Disorders in these steps include Adrenoleukodystrophy, Wolman Disease and its milder variant Cholesterol Ester Storage Disease, and Niemann-Pick Type C Disease, all of which may present with adrenal insufficiency. The means by which cholesterol is directed to...
