19-Nor (2) and 5 alpha-reduced (3) derivatives of androst-4-ene-3,6,17-trione (1) as well as 5 alpha-androstan-17-ones 4-6 were tested for their abilities to inhibit aromatase in human placental microsomes. All the steroids except 5 alpha-6-one 4 were fair to good competitive inhibitors of the enzyme, with apparent Ki's ranging from 50 to 820 nM in which 5 alpha-3-one 5 was the most potent among them. The inhibitory activities of the 19-nor and 5 alpha-reduced derivatives (2 and 3) were less potent than that of the parent compound 1. Inhibitor 2 caused a time-dependent, pseudo-first-order inactivation of aromatase activity with a rate constant for inactivation of 0.148 min-1 in the presence of NADPH in air. The substrate androstenedione prevented the inactivation and L-cysteine did not protect aromatase from the inactivation.
