Abstract
► Human placenta metabolizes exogenous 7DHC to 7DHP. ► Epidermal keratinocytes metabolize both exogenous and endogenous 7DHC to 7DHP. ► Intermediates of the pathway are 22(OH)7DHC and 20,22(OH)27DHC. ► 7DHP is metabolized to 7-dehydroprogesterone and hydroxy-7DHP. ► 7DHP inhibits keratinocyte proliferation.
