    Topical hormones best evaluated via saliva and/or blood spot. Urine and particularly serum does not increase with dosing.  That does not mean the topical hormone therapy is ineffective, just that serum and urine are not optimal to follow topical therapy.  When looking at endogenous hormones without any therapies: serum, saliva, urine, and blood spot are equivalent.

Effects of endurance exercise on free testosterone concentration and the binding affini... - 0 views

  •  
    exercise increases Testosterone production via catecholamine mechanism.  Free Testosterone increases independent from SHBG affinity.

Neuropsychopharmacology - Testosterone Suppression of CRH-Stimulated Cortisol in Men - 0 views

  •  
    Testosterone inhibits CRH and thus cortisol.

Testosterone Suppression of CRH-stimulated Cortisol in Men - 0 views

  •  
    Testosterone inhibits CRH and thus cortisol production in men.  This has implications in men with low T and low Cortisol.

    Leptin does have inhibitory activity at the level at the HPA; in addition to the inhibition at the gonadal level.

PLOS ONE: Testosterone Induces Molecular Changes in Dopamine Signaling Pathway Molecule... - 0 views

  • The majority of the gene expression changes reported here are only induced by DHT and testosterone, and not by estradiol, indicating that in adolescent males androgen receptor, not ERα, activation is critical for these responses
  • It is less clear whether ERβ is involved or not as DHT, via conversion to 3β-diol has a high affinity for ERβ
  • the testosterone-induced, AR-driven modulation of molecular indices of dopamine responsivity of the nigrostriatal pathway may involve regulation of dopamine feedback inhibition in the somatodendritic field and post-synaptic dopamine action in the terminal field.
  •  
    Testosterone increases dopamine signaling.  This study was done on male rats.  No effect was seen with Estradiol.

  •  
    vitamin D supplementation (2,000 IU) prolongs remission of Crohn's disease.  Of interesting note, the vitamin D group maintained gut integrity and had a decrease in gut permeability.

    Only abstract available here, but low T is the result of primary (testicular failure) and/or secondary (HPA failure).

Effects of Resistance Training on Testosterone Metabolism in Younger and Older Men. - P... - 0 views

  •  
    Resistance training increases Testosterone in younger and older men.  The effects in older men appears to involve more of a decreased metabolism.

Leptin inhibits testosterone secretion from adult rat testis in vitro. - PubMed - NCBI - 0 views

  •  
    high leptin levels found to inhibit pituitary LH/FSH release.  Of note, high leptin levels inhibited leydig cell production of Testosterone following hCG stimulation.  This is a rat in vitro study.

    Leptin shown to inhibit steroid hormone synthesis in the gonads via inhibition of 17beta-HSD.  This is in addition to other reports of inhibition of 17,20 lyase, adrenal cortisol inhibition, inhibition of CRF, and inhibition of LH/FSH.

    Leptin inhibits CRH, thus decreasing the HPA axis.

    Leptin inhibits hormone production from the adrenal cortex, but increases catecholamine release from the adrenal medulla.

Kisspeptin-10 Is a Potent Stimulator of LH and Increases Pulse Frequency in Men - 0 views

  • Kisspeptin, a hypothalamic neuropeptide
  • has recently emerged as a key central regulator of GnRH secretion
  •  
    Kisspeptin increases LH pulse frequency and pluse amplititude; the result is an increase in Testosterone secretion.

  •  
    Normal leptin levels are critical to puberty; but in obese men, increased leptin is associated with gonadal decrease in Testosterone.  It appears to occur through a decrease in 17-OH progesterone to Testosterone: suggesting an inhibitory activity in the conversion of 17-OH progesterone to Testosterone in obese men.

    Lipoprotein lipase is important in the uptake of Fatty acids into cells: particularly adipose cells and muscle cells.

The adipose tissue metabolism: role of testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone. - PubMe... - 0 views

  • T inhibits lipid uptake and lipoprotein-lipase (LDL) activity in adipocytes, and stimulates lipolysis
  • T inhibits differentiation of adipocyte precursor cells
  • DHEA stimulates resting metabolic rate (RMR) and lipid oxidation, and enhances glucose disposal, by increasing the expression of GLUT-1 and GLUT-4 on fat cell plasma membrane
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • The insulin-like effect of DHEA would be associated to a decrease of plasma insulin concentrations and, thus, to an increase of the molar ratio between lipolytic hormones and insulin
  • the fat-reducing effect of both T and DHEA seems to be more evident at the level of visceral adipose tissue
  •  
    Testosterone inhibits lipid uptake into adipocytes.  Testosterone inhibits lipoprotein lipase.  Testosterone stimulated lipolysis.  Testosterone inhibits adipocyte differentiation of proginator cells. DHEAs effects are through different mechanisms.   Both have a preference for activity with visceral adipose tissue.

    Opinion publication recommends total Testosterone as primary means of evaluating Testosterone.  This recommendation relies on the use of immunoassay techniques which can lack specificity compared to newer LC/MS and GC/MS techniques.  The authors did recommend using salivary Testosterone when borderline and SHBG variables play in, which happens to be most clients I see.  The best approach is to use both simultaneously to give a more clear physiologic picture to start.
