2020-06-10
Abstract excerpt
Steroid hormones, including glucocorticoids and androgens, exert a wide variety of effects in the body across almost all tissues. The steroid A-ring 5β-reductase (AKR1D1) is expressed in human liver and testes, and three splice variants have been identified ( AKR1D1-001, AKR1D1-002, AKR1D1-006 ). Amongst these, AKR1D1-002 is the best described; it modulates steroid hormone availability and catalyses an important...
