Rosiglitazone and Pioglitazone Alter Aromatase Kinetic Properties in Human Granulosa Cells

Figure 2

Effects of TZDs on aromatase enzyme kinetics when androstenedione was used as substrate. (a) The Lineweaver-Burk plot (reciprocal velocities of aromatase activity against reciprocal androstenedione concentration) in the absence of rosiglitazone or pioglitazone. (b) The Lineweaver-Burk plot in the presence of rosiglitazone. (c) The Lineweaver-Burk plot in the presence of pioglitazone. (d) Comparison of the Lineweaver-Burk plots in the presence or absence of rosiglitazone or pioglitazone. 𝑉 = velocity; 𝑆 = substrate.
