Inhibition of aldosterone formation by cortisol in rat adrenal mitochondria
摘要:
In this work we confirm by a metabolic method the existence of at least two enzymes with 11 beta- and 18-hydroxylase activities in rat adrenal mitochondria. The method was based on the ability of cortisol (F), a foreign alternative substrate, to inhibit competitively metabolite productions from various precursors. F inhibited a) aldosterone (ALDO) production from 11-deoxycorticosterone (DOG) without affecting the yields of corticosterone (B) and 18-hydroxy-11-deoxycorticosterone (18-OHDOC); b) 18-hydroxycorticosterone and aldosterone productions from B (K-i = 2.5 +/- 0.5 mu M); and c) ALDO production from 18-OHDOC. These results suggest the existence of two categories of enzymes with both 11 beta- and 18-hydroxylase activities, one comprising those that catalyze the conversions of DOC to B and 18-OHDOC (F-insensitive reactions [FIS]) and the other one comprising the enzymes involved in the conversions of B to 18-OHB and ALDO and that of 18-OHDOC to ALDO (F-sensitive reactions [FS]). The cloned enzymes CYP11B1 and CYP11B2 would pertain respectively to the FIS and FS categories.

Reduction of the diketal 1 with sodium aluminum bis-(methoxyethoxy) hydride afforded the crystalline 18-hydroxycorticosterone diketal (2), an intermediate in the formation of 18-deoxyaldosterone acetate (4b). The hitherto unreported but anticipated metabolites of 4 were prepared as follows: hydrogenations of 4b furnished the fα- and 5β isomers 6 and 5b, and thence the tetra- and hexahydro derivatives
