    Abstract:
    Many environmental pollutants act as endocrine-disrupting compounds by inhibiting human placental 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/Δ5-4 isomerase type 1 (HSD3B1) and aromatase (CYP19A1) activities. In this study, we screened 13 chemicals of environmental concern for their ability to inhibit human HSD3B1 and CYP19A1 by measuring the conversion of pregnenolone to progesterone for HSD3B1 activity and the conversion of testosterone to 17β-estradiol for CYP19A1 activity in human JEG-3 choriocarcinoma cell microsomes. HSD3B1 had an apparent Km of 0.323 μM and an apparent Vmax of 0.111 nmol/mg/min and CYP19A1 had an apparent Km of 56 nM and an apparent Vmax of 0.177 nmol/mg protein/min. 17β-Estradiol, bisphenol A, and bisphenol AF competitively inhibited HSD3B1 with Ki values of 0.8, 284.1, and 141.2 μM, respectively, while diethylstilbestrol had a mixed inhibition on human HSD3B1 with the Ki of 8.0 μM. Ketoconazole, bisphenol A, and bisphenol AF noncompetitively inhibited CYP19A1 with Ki values of 10.3, 54.4, and 45.7 μM, respectively, while diethylstilbestrol and zearalenone competitively suppressed CYP19A1 with Ki values of 63.0 and 16.6 μM, respectively. Docking analysis showed that 17β-estradiol, diethylstilbestrol, bisphenol A, and bisphenol AF bound the steroid binding pocket facing the catalytic residues Y155 and K159 of HSD3B1, and that ketoconazole, bisphenol A, and bisphenol AF bound heme binding pocket while diethylstilbestrol and zearalenone bound the steroid binding site of CYP19A1. In conclusion, 17β-estradiol, diethylstilbestrol, bisphenol A, and bisphenol AF are human HSD3B1 inhibitors, and ketoconazole, zearalenone, diethylstilbestrol, bisphenol A, and bisphenol AF are human CYP19A1 inhibitors.
