Abstract
We report the results of the evaluation of a series of imidazole-based compounds against the enzyme 17α- hydroxylase/17,20-lyase (P-45017α). The results show that the compounds were, in general, weak inhibitors of P-45017α in comparison to the standard inhibitor ketoconazole (KTZ) - one was, however, found to be more potent than KTZ.
Keywords: Androgen, Enzyme inhibitor, 17α-hydroxylase, Imidazole, 17,20-lyase, Prostate cancer, Biochemical, 2-imidazol-1-yl-1-phenyl-ethanone, P-45017α, cytochrome, androstenedione (AD), dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), progesterone, pregnenolone, NADPH, iron-monooxygen
