According to this hypothesis, DHEAS, produced by the fetal adrenals, and to a smaller extent from the maternal adrenals, enters the placenta, where it is metabolized to A4 and T, which is then converted into E1 (estrone) (Strauss et al., 1996).
In postmenopausal women, androstendione, a hormone produced in the adrenal gland, is converted peripherally into estrone and can be conjugated to form estrone sulfate.
In Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, a bacterium that degrades estradiol, it was determined that estrone is converted into tyrosine through the cleavage of its saturated ring, this amino acid in turn can be utilized in protein biosynthesis; however, the enzyme responsible of this conversion was not identified [ 90].
The majority of bacteria that degrade estradiol such as Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, B. subtilis, and B. cereus have been isolated from sludge and can convert estradiol into estrone, but they cannot further degrade estrone [ 88].
Aromatase expression was studied by immunohistochemistry. Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) was converted into androstenediol, androstenedione (ASD), 16αOH-DHEA, 7αOH-DHEA, testosterone, estrone (E1), estradiol (E2), estriol (E3), and 16αOH-testosterone (similar in OA and RA).
Coverage converted into polling support.
Or, rather, was converted into an asset.
Streets are converted into outdoor eateries.
Houses converted into bars.
