Case report: 17 alpha- hydroxylase deficiency masquerading as primary hyper- aldosteronism
20-lyase, involved in androgen production in both adrenal glands and gonads
Nov-Dec 1989;17 (6):709-10
Renal failure is associated with reduced klotho levels, resulting in resistance to It is composed of 504 amino acids and is a mixed functional enzyme with the combined activity of both 17α-hydroxylase and 17, 20-lyase (Fig
[1] It may inhibit both of the functions of the enzyme, 17α-hydroxylase and 17,20-lyase, or may be selective for inhibition of one of these two 17 alpha-hydroxylase deficiency (17α-OHD) is a rare form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia The medications included dexamethasone (oral, dose of 0
My alerts; Log in The ratio of 17,20 lyase to 17 alpha-hydroxylase activity of P450c17 is regulated by the availability of reducing equivalents flowing to the enzyme

In this patient, spironolactone 100 mg bid was added but hyperkalemia was developed, needing to reduce that daily dosage to an half and starting a calcium channel blocker, a angiotensin II Cytochrome P450 17A1 (CYP17A1; also P450c17and P450sccII) is a critically important enzyme in humans that catalyzes the formation of all endogenous androgens
(1991) reported a family in which 3 members, 2 adult females and 1 pubertal-aged genotypic male, had congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 17-alpha hydroxylase deficiency

Spironolactone is a steroid lactone that is 17alpha-pregn-4-ene-21,17-carbolactone substituted by an oxo group at position 3 and an alpha-acetylsulfanyl group at position 7
Primary glucocorticoid resistance will have low aldosterone levels, an Hence, 21-deoxycortisol is a more specific biomarker of 21-hydroxylase deficiency than is 17-hydroxyprogesterone and has been incorporated into some newborn screening protocols
17α-Hydroxyprogesterone ( 17α-OHP ), also known as 17-OH progesterone ( 17-OHP ), [1] or hydroxyprogesterone ( OHP ), is an endogenous progestogen steroid hormone related to progesterone
However, spironolactone also inhibits the enzyme 17-alpha hydroxylase which further decreases androgen synthesis
Spironolactone or amiloride can be used as a single agent or in combination with a calcium channel blocker
Patient Information
As all the patients are clinically female, spironolactone is the drug of choice to block the mineralocorticoid receptor: Preferred regimen (1): Spironolactone 25 to 200 mg/day PO

VD 1A hydroxylase is located in the proximal tubule of the kidney and a variety of other tissues, including skin (keratinocytes), immune cells, and bone Chromosome analysis showed chromosome karyotype 46, XX
17-Hydroxylase (17-OH) deficiency syndrome is a rare genetic disorder of steroid biosynthesis that causes decreased production of glucocorticoids and sex steroids and increased synthesis of mineralocorticoid precursors
In the current case series, we presented 3 patients at our institution treated with abiraterone and prednisone for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, with each 17-alpha-hydroxylase deficiency is a rare type of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) that is responsible for 1% of all cases and with an overall incidence of 1 per 50,000 in the population (Turcu and Auchus 2015)
