Dehydro-epiandrosterone sulfate DHEAS

Kullak-Ublick, G. A., et al. Dehydro-epiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) identification of a carrier protein in human liver and brain. FEBS Lett. 1998, 424, 173-176. [Pg.280]

The biologically inactive estrone sulfate (EIS) and dehydro-epiandrosterone-sulfate (DHEAS) are the most abundant circulating estrogenic precursors in the plasma of post-menopausal women [103]. Desulfation of inactive steroid-3-0-sulfates by estrone-sulfatase (STS) plays a key role in the regulation of levels of receptor-active estrogenic steroids (estradiol and androstenediol) in breast cancer cells (Fig. 9). There is strong evidence suggesting that estrone sulfatase (STS) and DHEA-sulfatase are the same enzyme [103]. [Pg.43]
