This oxidation is essential for stability of hormone: it helps to regulates the elevation of Testosterone in women,subduing the manifestation of male sexual characteristics,
and
for preventing autoimmune diseases.
<u>The oxidation involved two basic steps of reaction, controlled by two different enzymes.</u>
<u>NADP is a Co- factor, when in reduced form( NADPH) is used in Calvin cycle, of light independent reaction of photosynthesis, and in Nucleic acid and triglycerides synthesis</u>.
It has nothing to do with conversation of Androgen( testosterone to Estradiol.
