[Interaction of steroid hormones with glutamate dehydrogenase]
Abstract:
The inhibitory action of sex hormones on the glutamate dehydrogenase activity is due to their binding to the enzyme protein. No binding of sex hormones to glutamate dehydrogenase is observed in the presence of L-amino acids, preventing the enzyme dissociation. Under those conditions the enzyme sensitivity to the inhibitory action of the hormones sharply decreases.

Types of Hormones
Steroids and eicosanoids fall under the category of lipid-soluble hormones. Steroids are derived from cholesterol and feature four interconnected carbon rings with variable side chains. Notable examples include estradiol from ovaries and testosterone from testes, exemplifying the critical roles of these lipid-soluble hormones in reproductive physiology. Eicosanoids, derived...
