1 Using a cell line derived from the D2 tumor, we have demonstrated the effect of the aromatase substrate, androstenedione, on the proliferation of tumor cells. Androstenedione cytochrome P450 family 19 subfamily A member 1 Homo sapiens
2 Proliferative effects of androstenedione were blocked by an aromatase inhibitor, providing evidence for the role of int-5/aromatase in this process. Androstenedione cytochrome P450 family 19 subfamily A member 1 Homo sapiens
3 Proliferative effects of androstenedione were blocked by an aromatase inhibitor, providing evidence for the role of int-5/aromatase in this process. Androstenedione cytochrome P450 family 19 subfamily A member 1 Homo sapiens
4 Furthermore, the androstenedione-mediated proliferation was inhibited by the addition of anti-estrogen ICI 164,384, suggesting that the estrogen formed from the conversion of androstenedione by int-5/aromatase acts like a mitogen to stimulate the growth of D2 tumor cells. Androstenedione cytochrome P450 family 19 subfamily A member 1 Homo sapiens
