  •  
    In obese men with low T and type 2 diabetes, Testosterone replacement improves insulin sensitivity.  Glycated hemoglobin was also improved.  In this study group, a decrease in visceral adiposity and TC was seen.

Testosterone and metabolic syndrome Cunningham GR - Asian J Androl - 0 views

  • The relationship of low testosterone to MetS often is considered to be bidirectional; however, the relationships probably are not direct
  • Many of the components of the MetS are recognized risk factors for the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD)
  • Multiple cross-sectional studies have found low TT and low sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) levels in Caucasian and African-American men with the MetS, irrespective of age
  • ...20 more annotations...
  • Low TT and SHBG levels also are prevalent in Chinese [7],[8] and Korean [9] men with the MetS
  • Normally 40%-50% of TT is bound to SHBG, so reducing SHBG levels will decrease TT.
  • Hyperinsulinism suppresses SHBG synthesis and secretion by the liver
  • significant increase in SHBG levels occurred after acutely lowering insulin levels in obese men
  • Estradiol levels are increased in men with the MetS, and they are positively correlated with the number of abnormal components of the MetS.
  • Although it is known that estrogen will increase SHBG levels, apparently the hyperinsulinism associated with obesity has a greater effect on SHBG levels
  • Estradiol also can inhibit luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion
  • Inflammatory cytokines are thought to have a direct effect on the pituitary to reduce LH secretion [15] and also a direct effect on Leydig cell secretion of testosterone
  • Low TT Levels have been shown to predict development of the MetS in men with normal BMI
  • Men in the lowest quartiles of serum TT, calculated free testosterone (cFT) and SHBG at baseline had the highest odds ratios for developing the MetS or DM during the 11 years follow-up
  • More recently, investigators conducting population-based studies have reported that only SHBG is associated with future development of the MetS
  • Additional evidence that low TT increases the risk of MetS comes from androgen deprivation treatment of prostate cancer
  • Low TT and low bioavailable testosterone (bT) were each significantly associated with elevated 20 years risk of CVD mortality in an older population in which cause-specific mortality was age, adiposity, and lifestyle-adjusted.
  • combination of low bT and ATP III-defined MetS is associated with increased cardiovascular mortality in men aged 40 years and above
  • in elderly men, testosterone may weakly protect against CVD. Alternatively, low TT may indicate poor general health
  • Muraleedharan and Jones [27] concluded that there is convincing evidence that low T is a biomarker for disease severity and mortality.
  • The evidence that TRT improves insulin sensitivity and glucose control is conflicted
  • It is widely recognized that testosterone treatment can reduce fat mass and increase lean body mass; however, until recently most reports have not been associated with much weight loss
  • Changes in body composition and weight loss are considered potential mechanisms by which testosterone treatment improves insulin sensitivity and glucose control in patients with diabetes. Effects on inflammatory cytokines [38] and changes in oxidative metabolism [39] also have been reported to improve glucose metabolism.
  • Testosterone replacement therapy has been reported to improve some or all of the components of the MetS.

  •  
    Another study regarding reverse T3 that many Endocrinologists need to read.  In this study, the authors find that significantly higher reverse T3 levels were associated with myocardial function impairment (MFI) class IV.  This MFI class IV was also found associated with a decreased fT3/rT3.

  •  
    published ahead of print.  The authors conclude that the Testosterone therapy in hypogonadal men with cirrhosis requires further study.  They, the authors, state that the risk of Testosterone and hepatocellular carcinoma is overstated.  This risk is associated with oral Testosterone replacement and thus in that light is not overstated.  The majority of treatment strategies today employ none oral routes of administration which would support their statement.

  •  
    Very insightful study.  Study looked at hyperadrogenism and inflammation in women on the orders of PCOS.  The study subjects did not have PCOS, but hyperandrogenism via 130 mg DHEA was associated with an increase in TNF-alpha in these lean o/w healthy women.  We know this is due to hyperandrogenism as elevated Testosterone, DHEA, and androstenedione were documented with treatment. Take home:  androgens promote inflammation in women.  I believe this has serious negative implications about the massive Testosterone doping that is occurring in women today.
