Increased stabilization and activation of mutant NRF2. a Representative western blot of endogenous level of NRF2, KEAP1, G6PD, AKR1B10 and AKR1C1 in protein lysates of human primary fibroblast cell lines from two controls (NRF2 WT 1, WT 2) and patient 1 with NRF2 p.T80K variant. Full blots are shown in Supplementary Fig. 6. b Quantitative analysis of western blot images illustrating the endogenous level of NRF2, KEAP1, G6PD, AKR1B10 and AKR1C1 relative normalized to ACTB and NRF2 WT 1. c qRT–PCR analysis of NFE2L2, KEAP1 and target gene expression in primary fibroblast cell lines from two controls (NRF2 WT 1, WT 2) and patient 1 with NRF2 p.T80K variant. AKR1B10 and AKR1C1 are visualized on a separated X axis due to the high range. Expression is normalized to that of ACTB. % of mRNA is equal to 2−∆∆CT and normalized relative to NRF2 WT 1. Redox calibration confirms full functionality of roGFP1 as well as identical response ranges for NRF2 WT 2 and NRF2 p.T80K fibroblast cells. d Response range calibration of an exemplary NRF2 WT 2 and NRF2 p.T80K fibroblast cell performed as a continuous recording of the roGFP1 ratio F395/F470 within a ROI of cytoplasm of the cell, scale bar is 20 µM. Plotted traces represent full oxidation (Rox, induced by 5 mM H2O2, 5 min) and full reduction (Rred, induced by 10 mM DTT, 5 min). After calibration the relative degrees of roGFP1 oxidation and corresponding roGFP1 redox potentials can be calculated. e Baseline redox conditions of NRF2 WT 2 and NRF2 p.T80K fibroblasts. Upper diagram shows the relative level of roGFP1 oxidation of NRF2 WT 2 and NRF2 p.T80K cells at rest (OxDroGFP1, Eq. 1). Lower diagram represents corresponding steady-state roGFP1 redox potential (EroGFP1, Eq. 2). b, c Data are given as means ± SEM, n ≥ 3 independent experiments.

AKR1C1 also known as Aldo-Keto Reductase Family 1 Member C1 is an enzyme that performs functions related to the reduction of steroids prostaglandins and xenobiotics. It has a molecular mass of approximately 37 kDa. AKR1C1 is expressed in various tissues including the liver lungs and prostate. It exhibits significant activity in hormone-sensitive tissues reflecting its role in steroid metabolism.
Biological function summary

AKR1C1 participates in the conversion of ketosteroids to hydroxysteroids important for the regulation of steroid hormone activity. As part of the aldo-keto reductase (AKR) superfamily it works alongside similar enzymes such as AKR1C2 and AKR1C3. Its activity in converting active androgens into their less active forms influences processes like testosterone metabolism playing a role in modulating cellular responses to hormones.

Pathways

AKR1C1 is heavily involved in the steroid hormone biosynthesis and prostaglandin metabolism pathways. This enzyme catalyzes reductions that are essential in maintaining homeostasis of hormone levels. It is functionally related to proteins such as 5α-reductase in steroid biosynthesis. Within these pathways AKR1C1's regulation of androgens directly influences processes of cellular proliferation and differentiation.

AKR1C1 has a connection to hormone-dependent cancers such as prostate cancer due to its role in steroid metabolism. The enzyme's conversion of potent androgens impacts progression and treatment outcomes in such cancers. Additionally AKR1C1 relates to disorders of sex development as imbalances in androgen regulation can lead to abnormal sexual differentiation. In these contexts AKR1C1 potentially cooperates with proteins like cytochrome P450 enzymes impacting disease progression and therapeutic targets.

Target data

Cytosolic aldo-keto reductase that catalyzes the NADH and NADPH-dependent reduction of ketosteroids to hydroxysteroids (PubMed : 19218247). Most probably acts as a reductase in vivo since the oxidase activity measured in vitro is inhibited by physiological concentrations of NADPH (PubMed : 14672942). Displays a broad positional specificity acting on positions 3, 17 and 20 of steroids and regulates the metabolism of hormones like estrogens and androgens (PubMed : 10998348). May also reduce conjugated steroids such as 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone sulfate (PubMed : 19218247). Displays affinity for bile acids (PubMed : 8486699).
