Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** HSD17B3 is a type of 17-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, which belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR) family. This enzyme exhibits NAD+ dependent activity, converting androgens to estrogens and vice versa. The HSD17B3 gene is specifically expressed in various cell types, including retinal cone cells, cardiac endothelial cells, and intestinal crypt stem cells. Its expression is also notable in immune cells, such as immature innate lymphoid cells. **Pathways and Functions:** HSD17B3 is involved in several key biological pathways, including: 1. **Androgen Biosynthesis:** HSD17B3 catalyzes the conversion of testosterone to estradiol, a critical step in the biosynthesis of androgens. 2. **Fatty Acid Metabolism:** This enzyme participates in the metabolism of fatty acids, particularly in the synthesis of very long-chain fatty acyl-CoAs. 3. **Steroid Biosynthesis:** HSD17B3 is also involved in the biosynthesis of steroid hormones, including androgens and estrogens. 4. **Metabolism of Lipids and Steroids:** The enzyme plays a role in the metabolism of lipids and steroids, highlighting its importance in energy homeostasis. **Clinical Significance:** The dysregulation of HSD17B3 has been implicated in various diseases and disorders, including: 1. **Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome:** Mutations in the HSD17B3 gene can lead to androgen insensitivity syndrome, a condition characterized by impaired androgen action. 2. **Metabolic Disorders:** Altered HSD17B3 expression has been linked to metabolic disorders, such as obesity and insulin resistance. 3. **Cancer:** The enzyme's role in androgen biosynthesis makes it a potential target for cancer therapy, particularly in prostate cancer. 4. **Neurological Disorders:** HSD17B3's involvement in fatty acid metabolism suggests its potential role in neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease. In conclusion, HSD17B3 is a vital enzyme involved in androgen biosynthesis, fatty acid metabolism, and steroid biosynthesis. Its dysregulation has significant implications for various diseases and disorders, highlighting the need for further research into its clinical significance.
