Abstract: | Steroid 5α-reductase (SRD5A) is a crucial enzyme involved in steroid metabolism, primarily converting testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Dutasteride, an inhibitor of SRD5A types 1 and 2, is widely used for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia. An adverse outcome pathway (AOP) has been documented wherein SRD5A inhibition decreases DHT synthesis, leading to reduced levels of 17β-estradiol (E2) and vitellogenin (VTG), subsequently impairing fecundity in fish (AOP 289). However, the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying these effects remain poorly understood. In this study, we assessed the impact of SRD5A inhibition on zebrafish embryos (Danio rerio). Exposure to dutasteride resulted in decreased DHT, E2, and VTG levels, showing a positive correlation. Dutasteride also downregulated the expression of reproduction-related genes (srd5a2, cyp19a1, esr1, esr2a, esr2b, and vtg), with interrelated reductions observed across these levels. Docking studies suggested that dutasteride's effects may operate independently of androgen receptor (AR) and estrogen receptor (ER) interactions. Furthermore, co-exposure of dutasteride (0.5 or 2 μM) with 0.5 μM DHT revealed gene expression levels comparable to the control group. These findings underscore DHT's pivotal role in modulating estrogenic function and the interplay between estrogenic and androgenic responses in vertebrates. Our proposed AOP model offers insights into mechanistic gaps, thereby enhancing current understanding and bridging knowledge disparities. |
