Skin steroidogenesis in health and disease

Abstract

The skin is an important extra-gonadal steroidogenic organ, capable of metabolizing various hormones from their precursors, as well as of synthesizing de novo a broad palette of sex steroids and glucocorticoids from cholesterol. In this manuscript, we review the major steroidogenic properties of human skin and we suggest steroidogenesis' impairment as a cardinal factor for various pathological conditions such as acne, rosacea, atopic dermatitis, and androgenic alopecia.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Acne-prone skin expresses higher levels of androgen generating enzymes than non-acne-prone skin, including HSD17B3 and AKR1C3 converting A4 to T, STS and SRD5A1.

    “Acne-prone skin expresses higher levels of androgen generating enzymes than non-acne-prone skin (HSD17B3 and AKR1C3 converting A4 to T, STS and SRD5A1; summarized in (Nikolakis et al., 2016)).”

  • Circulating DHEA can be used as a precursor to produce active androgens by 3βHSD, 5α-reductase and reductive 17βHSD activity in the skin.

    “Circulating DHEA can also be used as a precursor to produce active androgens by 3βHSD, 5α-reductase and reductive 17βHSD activity (Nikolakis et al., 2016, Slominski et al., 2013).”

  • The resulting steroids from cutaneous steroidogenesis include glucocorticoids and androgens.

    “The resulting steroids include glucocorticoids and androgens and these pathways were reviewed in (Labrie et al., 2000, Nikolakis et al., 2016, Slominski et al., 2013).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
