Background Information
HSD3B2(3-beta-hydroxy-Delta(5)-steroid dehydrogenase) belongs to the 3-beta-HSD family and catalyzes the oxidation and isomerization of delta-5-3-beta-hydroxysteroid precursors into delta-4-ketosteroids, thus leading to the formation of all classes of steroid hormones.HSD3B2 is expressed almost exclusively in adrenals and gonads, whereas HSD3B1 is expressed predominantly in placenta and skin (PMID:1682237). HSD3B2 plays a crucial role in steroid hormone biosynthesis and is thus of particular interest in hormone dependent tumors such as prostate cancer. Compared with normal tissue cytoplasmic HSD3B2 staining was stronger in prostate cancers (PMID: 29803408). Defects in HSD3B2 are the cause of adrenal hyperplasia type 2 (AH2).
