Slices of whole kidney and kidney cortex from the female guinea pig catalyzed a marked reduction of estrone 3-sulfate (E13S) and estrone (E1) to 17beta-estradiol 3-sulfate (E23S) and 17beta-estradiol (E2), respectively, as well as the reverse (dehydrogenation) reactions. Slices of medulla did not appear active in E23S-E13S interconversion but did possess the ability to interconvert E2 and E1, besides possessing considerable sulfatase activity. The use of [3H-55S]E13S and [3H-55S]E23S as substrates, together with a demonstrated lack of estrogen sulfate synthesis by the tissue slices, provided ample evidence that the intact sulfates were involved in direct oxidoreduction. Slices of human kidney cortex catalyzed the reduction of E13S to a very limited extent. Slices of whole kidney and of cortex from guinea pig formed small amounts of estrogen glucuronide(s).
