Hydroxybenzothiazoles as new nonsteroidal inhibitors of 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (17β-HSD1).

TL;DR: A novel pharmacophore model was derived from crystallographic data and used for the virtual screening of a small library of compounds, resulting in the discovery of a novel class of 17β-HSD1 inhibitors bearing a benzothiazole-scaffold linked to a phenyl ring via keto- or amide-bridge.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibitors of 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1, 2 and 14: Structures, biological activities and future challenges.

TL;DR: The present review gives a survey on the development of inhibitor classes as well as the structural formulas and biological properties of their most interesting representatives.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lead optimization of 17β-HSD1 inhibitors of the (hydroxyphenyl)naphthol sulfonamide type for the treatment of endometriosis.

TL;DR: 4-indolylsulfonamide 30 is a highly active and selective human 17 β-HSD1 inhibitor, as well as a highly potent and selective inhibitor of 17β- HSD1 from Callithrix jacchus, which shows no affinity to the estrogen receptors α and β and good intracellular activity (T47D).
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolic stability optimization and metabolite identification of 2,5-thiophene amide 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 inhibitors.

TL;DR: A rational strategy to overcome the metabolic liability in the 2,5-thiophene amide class of 17β-HSD2 inhibitors is described, and the biological activity of the new inhibitors are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel, potent and selective 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 inhibitors as potential therapeutics for osteoporosis with dual human and mouse activities.

TL;DR: The design, the synthesis and the biological evaluation of 24 new 17β-HSD2 inhibitors in the 5-substituted thiophene-2-carboxamide class are described and new structural insights into the active sites of the human and mouse enzymes were gained.

Skeletal Effects of Estrogen

TL;DR: Estrogen appears to be the most important sex steroid in preventing osteoporosis in women and is the subject of this review.
Journal ArticleDOI

Androgens and bone

TL;DR: Observations in androgen-resistant animals clearly demonstrated that the sexual dimorphism of bone depends on the presence of a functional androgen receptor, and optimal peak bone mass seems related to an appropriately timed androgen secretion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hip fracture and the use of estrogens in postmenopausal women. The Framingham Study.

TL;DR: Taking estrogen within four years of menopause also protected against hip fracture, and the adjusted relative risk in women who had taken estrogens within the previous two years was further reduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases.

TL;DR: 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases reveal a remarkable multifunctionality being able to modulate concentrations not only of steroids but as well of fatty and bile acids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integrated view on 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases.

TL;DR: In this article, metabolic activities of 17β-HSDs are compared, their interplay with endogenous substrates summarised, and interlacing pathways depicted, and strategies on deciphering the physiological role of 17beta-HSD and the genetic predisposition for associated diseases are presented.
