1 The objective of the present study is to investigate the direct effects of butylated hydroxyanisole on rat brain neurosteroidogenic 5alpha-reductase 1 (SRD5A1), 3alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (AKR1C14), and retinol dehydrogenase 2 (RDH2). Butylated Hydroxyanisole steroid 5 alpha-reductase 1 Rattus norvegicus
2 Butylated hydroxyanisole inhibited SRD5A1, AKR1C14, and RDH2 with IC50 values of 4.731+-0.079muM, 5.753+-0.073muM, and over 100muM, respectively. Butylated Hydroxyanisole steroid 5 alpha-reductase 1 Rattus norvegicus
3 Butylated hydroxyanisole is a competitive inhibitor for both SRD5A1 and AKR1C14. Butylated Hydroxyanisole steroid 5 alpha-reductase 1 Rattus norvegicus
4 In conclusion, butylated hydroxyanisole is a potent inhibitor of SRD5A1 and AKR1C14, thus reducing the formation of active neurosteroids. Butylated Hydroxyanisole steroid 5 alpha-reductase 1 Rattus norvegicus
