Feminizes the
Growth Hormone-Stat5b Pathway and Expression of Cyp2a4 and
Cyp2d9 Genes in Mouse Liver

We have studied the roles of estrogen receptor-
(ER
) and the Stat5b form of STAT (signal transducers and
activators of transcription) in sex-specific expression of
Cyp2a4 (steroid 15
-hydroxylase) and
Cyp2d9 (steroid 16
-hydroxylase) genes using
ER
-deficient mice. ER
deficiency resulted in the repression of
the female-specific Cyp2a4 and expression of the
male-specific Cyp2d9 genes, respectively in females. In
ER
-deficient males, the Cyp2d9 gene continued to be
expressed. Nuclear localization of Stat5b occurs in both sexes of
ER
-deficient mice, although it is normally observed in only
wild-type males. Nuclear localization of Stat5b correlates with the
repression of Cyp2a4 and expression of
Cyp2d9, respectively. Because Stat5b was not detectable
in liver nuclear extracts prepared from hypophysectomized
ER
-deficient females, the regulation by ER
appeared to be
mediated through a pituitary hormone (i.e., growth hormone). Thus,
ER
appears to play a key role in the mechanism that inhibits nuclear
localization of Stat5b in female mice, leading to feminization of a
ER
-GH-Stat5b pathway and Cyp expression. Defaulting
to this ER
-dependent mechanism results in localization of Stat5b to
nuclei, which masculinizes the expression of Cyp genes
in male mice.
