Testosterone Replacement Therapy Improves Metabolic Parameters in Hypogonadal Men with ... - 0 views

  •  
    Testosterone therapy lowered HgbA1c in poorly controlled Diabetics.  These patients were followed out to 52 weeks.  Testosterone therapy, as is lifestyle change, a long term strategy of Diabetes control.  Studies in controlled Diabetics have not shown a reduction in HgbA1c consistently.  Total cholesterol and waist circumference were also reduced.

Actions of Estrogens and Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals on Human Prostate Stem/Progenit... - 0 views

  •  
    Endocrine Disrupting chemicals, xenoestrogens, alter the hormone receptors very early. Increased estrogenic load with the change in ER increase prostate cancer.

Plasma testosterone in the general population, cancer prognosis and cancer risk: a pros... - 0 views

  •  
    Interesting prospective study on Total Testosterone.  If cancer is diagnosed, mortality is higher when TT is higher.  No change on incidence of cancer.  This study looked at men and women.

Effects of androgen supplementation of hormone... [Fertil Steril. 2001] - PubMed - NCBI - 0 views

  •  
    Testosterone therapy in post menopausal women appears to have adverse cardiovascular effects in women.  The negative effects were an increase in Pulsatility index and adverse change in lipid profiles.  This seemed to counter the positive effects by estrogen.  Others have proposed that combination E2 and T therapy hide the negative effects of testosterone on CV health in women.

Hidden Breast Cancer Disparities in Asian Women: Disaggregating Incidence Rates by Ethn... - 0 views

  •  
    Breast cancer incidence varies Asian American women living in Asia versus US.  The great variable here is the environment.  A change in phenotypic expression.

Exogenous androgens influence body c... [J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 1996] - PubMed - NCBI - 0 views

  •  
    Older study finds weak synthetic androgen improves weight loss in obese postmenopausal women.  This study compared nandrolone decanoate to spironolactone--an androgen receptor antagonist.  No change in glucose or insulin was seen.  Hard to draw a strong conclusion from this study due to the comparison of a synthetic androgen versus an anti-androgen.  This comparison could have exaggerated the benefit of androgen in these women.

Analysis of the vascular responses in a murine model of polycystic ovary syndrome - 0 views

  •  
    Animal model of PCOS provides insight to changes in vascular response.  In this animal mode, DHT resulted in a decrease in vasorelaxation of arterial endothelium.

Metformin Use and All-Cause and Prostate Cancer-Specific Mortality Among Men With Diabetes - 0 views

  •  
    Study out of Canada finds that Metformin reduces mortality rates for all-cause and due to prostate cancer in those with diabetes.  The key point here is glucose.  Metformin is going to inhibit gluconeogenesis and this limit hepatic glucose production feeding the cancer.  This is just the abstract and several questions come to mind: what was the glucose control like in these patients?  What dietary changes if any were these patients following?  A better study would be to compare the effects of a ketogenic diet with restriction of glutamine versus the metformin.

Significance of oestrogens in male (p... [Ann Endocrinol (Paris). 2003] - PubMed - NCBI - 0 views

  •  
    Just the abstract available, but estrogens have different effects in the male physiology--no surprise.  But, the different ages of the men appear to effect the estrogenic effects as well.  This would imply that the microenvironments change the way the Testosterone is used by the body.

Sex Steroids and Prostate Carcinogenesis Integrated, Multifactorial Working Hypothesis - 0 views

  •  
    The genesis of cancer is complex.  To simply say that cancer is genetic is both niave and uninformed.  This study displays the complexity of the timing of hormones and cancer genesis.  This rat study found that Estradiol added to Testosterone increased "markedly".  Estrogen plays a role in the genesis of prostate disease.  However, this varies among individuals.  The response of prostate cancer to estradiol appears to change according to the progression of the cancer.

Long-term Safety of Testosterone and Growth Hormone Supplementation: A Retrospective St... - 0 views

  •  
    Retrospective study finds that 2 years of Testosterone and GH do not change metabolic biomarkers, PSA, or disease risk.  LDL and TC were in fact decreased in the study arm without statin therapy.

  •  
    Plasma and salivary cortisol and Testosterone levels correlated in small study that looked at post-training hormones changes in athletes.  Cortisol and Testosterone peaked in all experimental groups.

Access : Prognostic and predictive value of plasma testosterone levels in patients rece... - 0 views

  •  
    Higher base-line Testosterone levels associated with longer overall survival in men with prostate cancer.  The comparison was 32.7 months with higher T levels versus 22.4 months with lower T levels.  Anemia was also a poor prognostic variable.  Whether exogenous Testosterone therapy will change this is still unclear, but the authors suggest that this should play a role in whether to use salvage hormone therapy.

  •  
    Overeating, which is a classical American diet, was found to increase weight, fat mass and fasting insulin.  In contrast, SHBG, Testosterone and DHT were decreased.  Enzymes responsible for androgen production i.e.3-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and 17-beta-hydroxysteroiddehydrogenase, were decreased in muscles of those in this study.  These changes were more pronounced in those with a family h/o of diabetes.
