  • modest statistically significant inverse associations for total and calculated free testosterone, and modest positive associations for total and calculated free estradiol with CRP concentration
  • Estradiol concentrations were also weakly positively associated with WBC count
  • SHBG was weakly inversely associated with WBC
  • ...21 more annotations...
  • An association between testosterone and WBC count was not observed
  • These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that in men higher androgen concentration is anti-inflammatory, and higher estrogen concentration is pro-inflammatory.
  • the probability of elevated CRP concentrations (≥ 3 mg/L) decreased with higher total and calculated free testosterone concentrations, while the probability increased with higher total and calculated free estradiol concentrations
  • there is ample evidence supporting the immunosuppressive effect of androgens
  • The incidence of autoimmune diseases is higher in androgen-deficient men
  • Studies have shown that the induction of hypogonadism in older men is followed by a significant increase in IL-6 concentrations (Khosla et al. 2002), a potent stimulator of inflammation, and that activation of the androgen receptor exerts a direct anti-inflammatory effect
  • It has been suggested that the mechanisms for the immunosuppressive effect of androgens could be either a direct effect on the expression of inflammatory genes (Bellido et al. 1995; Asirvatham et al. 2006), or an indirect effect through inhibition of nuclear factor-kB activation
  • Estradiol is the major biologically active estrogen, and about 80% is formed in adult men from the aromatization of testosterone primarily in the adipose tissue
  • estrogen can stimulate the transcription factor C/EBP-β, which is involved in CRP transcription
  • Most prior cross-sectional studies have observed inverse associations between androgen concentrations and inflammatory biomarkers
  • A recent study in Chinese men showed that lower concentrations of total and calculated free testosterone were associated with higher CRP concentration
  • Data from the Boston Area Community Health Survey also reported inverse associations between testosterone and CRP concentrations
  • Total testosterone was inversely associated with WBC count (Tang et al. 2007; Schneider et al. 2009; Brand et al. 2012), but calculated free testosterone was not associated with WBC
  • The first trial found a decrease in CRP, interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) but no changes in IL-6 and IL-10 concentrations between the active treatment and placebo arms
  • the majority of studies in the literature have not observed statistically significant associations between estradiol and inflammatory biomarkers in men, although several of them observed point estimates in the positive direction
  • total testosterone and estradiol compete for binding to SHBG, and seem to have opposite effects on the concentration of inflammatory biomarkers
  • A small randomized controlled trial of estrogen replacement therapy in prostate cancer patients showed an increase in CRP in the active treatment group versus the comparator group
  • Obese men are known to have lower androgen concentrations compared to their normal-weight counterparts
  • The strongest suggestion of an interaction was the inverse association between androstanediol glucuronide and CRP concentrations in obese participants, while the association was positive in the non-obese
  • A recent Chinese cross-sectional study observed stronger inverse associations between total testosterone and CRP concentrations in individuals with a BMI of 27.5 kg/m2 or greater
  • our results suggest that total and calculated free testosterone are modestly inversely associated with CRP concentrations, and that total and calculated free estradiol are modestly positively associated with CRP and WBC

    Study results suggest that higher Testosterone and lower Estrogen levels provide anti-inflammatory effects in men.  The inflammatory biomarker assessed here was CRP.  Low total and calculated free Testosterone was associated with an increase in CRP.  In contrast, total and free Estrogen was associated with an increase in CRP.  Estradiol increased WBC count and SHBG was inversely related to WBC count in this study.

    Travel wheelchair assists people to become more mobile and independent. There are many different types of wheelchairs that are used for various reasons. It is important to understand the limitations and safe operation of whatever wheelchair choose or need. The travel chair seat size (width and depth), seat-to-floor height, footrests/leg rests, front caster outriggers, adjustable backrests, controls, and many other features can be customized on, or added to, many basic models, while some users, often those with specialized needs, may have wheelchairs custom-built. A single-arm drive enables the user to turn either left or right while the two-armed drive enables user to move forward or backward on a straight line. Another type of wheelchair commonly used is a lever-drive wheelchair. This type of chair enables the user to move forward by pumping the lever back and forth.

leptin Testosterone hormone hormones obesity

shared by Nathan Goodyear on 22 Oct 14 - No Cached
  • strongly supports an association between levels of androgens and leptin in both men and women
  • The association between androgen levels and leptin seems to be dependent of fat distribution in men
  • There is a growing bulk of evidence suggesting that testosterone may influence leptin levels. Testosterone administration reduces leptin levels in hypogonadal27,28 and eugonadal men
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • testosterone suppression by GnRH agonist treatment of central precocious puberty in boys increases leptin levels
  • Testosterone levels decreased with increasing central obesity in healthy men, while they increase with increasing obesity in healthy women, the latter irrespective of menstrual status
  • this could be due to obesity-related hyperleptinemia that inhibits testosterone secretion at the testicular level.46,47 These changes, which are proposed to be components of the insulin resistance syndrome,48 are associated with increased risk for cardiovascular disease in both men and women
  • in the more obese subjects, the higher leptin levels due to increased adiposity might reduce secretion of testosterone
  • loss of regulation of leptin by testosterone in obese men and women could be an important feature of the insulin resistance syndrome

sarcopenia muscle loss

shared by Nathan Goodyear on 16 Apr 15 - No Cached
  • sarcopenia induces a change in the proportion of skeletal muscle fibers, inducing a shift from type II (fast) to type I (slow) fibers as well as preferential loss of type II fibers
  • testosterone stimulates protein synthesis by both a short-term mechanism-rapid activation of pre-existing components of the translational apparatus- and a long-term mechanism-increase in cell or tissue capacity at the protein synthesis level leading to increase in ribosome quantity
  • testosterone induces an increase in cross-sectional area (CSA) in type I and II muscle fibers and in myonuclear quantity, indicating that testosterone exerts more of a hypertrophic than a hyperplasic effect on skeletal muscle

salivary estradiol progesterone

shared by Nathan Goodyear on 19 Jan 11 - No Cached
  • Salivary measurements of E2 and progesterone can be used as noninvasive methods for assessment of ovarian function. Salivary specimens can be collected at home and brought to the laboratory for analysis, obviating the need for frequent phlebotomy. The sensitivity and precision of the salivary E2 assay make it comparable with assays of serum E2 for assessing changes in hormone levels.
