Effects of androgens on insulin actio... [Diabetes Metab Res Rev. 2008] - PubMed - NCBI - 0 views

  •  
    elevated insulin associated with insulin resistance causes elevated male hormones in women.  Whether it is in PCOS or postmenopausal over-aggressive replacement, Testosterone also turns right around and contributes to insulin resistance.  Vicious cycle.

The Diagnostic Applications of Saliva- A Review - 0 views

  •  
    Fantastic article on the review of the clinical use of saliva testing.  Of note, is the extensive documentation of the validation studies of hormone saliva testing.  Clearly, if a physician is against saliva testing, it is because of a lack of knowledge on the subject.

The Decline of Androgen Levels in Elderly Men and Its Clinical and Therapeutic Implications - 0 views

  •  
    discussion of the declining levels of androgens in the aging male.  But the focus of this entire article is wrong.  They are focusing on the blood levels of these androgens.  The biological effects of hormones occur in tissue not blood.  Though this article provides a good discussion of how transport of androgens are effected, it falls far short of providing any useful clinical application, because it fails to discuss peripheral levels of androgens.

Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer and is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors - 0 views

An endocrine pathway in the prostate, ERβ, AR, 5α-androstane-3β,17β-diol, and CYP7B1, regulates prostate growth - 0 views

  • Although the prostate is an androgen-dependent tissue, estrogens influence both normal functions and pathological changes in this gland
  • This dual action may be due to the existence of two estrogen receptors, ERα and ERβ
  • ERα and ERβ have similar affinities for estradiol-17β
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • In this study we have shown that regulation of the levels of 3βAdiol by CYP7B1 is a key factor in regulation of prostatic growth
  • We provide evidence that proliferating cells in the prostate epithelium have elevated levels of AR and that AR protein but not mRNA levels are regulated by ERβ and its ligand 3βAdiol in the prostate epithelium.
  • because inhibition of 5α-reductase causes accumulation of testosterone and removal of ERβ action increases the level of AR in the prostate, the overall effect of Finasteride would be to favor proliferation of the prostate epithelium
  • studies show that ERβ tends to be lost in advanced prostate cancer.
  • DHEA is converted in the body to 5-androstene-3β,17β-diol, which is also a ligand for estrogen receptors (25, 39) and a substrate for CYP7B1
  • At the peak of proliferation, the proliferating epithelial cells in the ventral prostate expressed high levels of CYP7B1 but had no detectable ERβ, whereas in nonproliferating cells the level of ERβ was high and that of CYP7B1 was low.
  •  
    3-beta androstanediola, a product of 3alpha-HSD from DHT binds to ER beta and down regulates AR in prostate cancer.  This study proposes that the mechanism is via CYP7B1.  CYP7B1 inactivates 3-beta androstanediol.  Interesting, because 3-beta androstanediol is considered "inactive" when compared to 3-alpha androstanediol and its interaction with ER alpha.

    elevated androgens (male hormones) correlated with low grade inflammation and atherogenesis in women with PCOS.  This was found more in those women that were obese.

Association of Mean Platelet Volume With Androgens and Insulin Resistance in Nonobese Patients With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome - 0 views

  •  
    Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) is associated with increased cardiovascular disease in some studies.  Hyperandrogenism is associated with increased CVD in women with PCOS. This study found that elevated androgen levels in non obese women with/without PCOS was associated with lower MPV values.  This stands in contrast to other studies.

Hyperandrogenism sensitizes mononuclear cells to promote glucose-induced inflammation in lean reproductive-age women - 0 views

  •  
    Interesting study finds hyperandrogenism stimulates excessive inflammatory response to glucose intake.  This study was done in otherwise healthy women not in women with PCOS.  The inflammatory cytokine production was via NF-KappaB activation.  Again, this has negative implications in women being doped with Testosterone.

The Effect of Simvastatin on Plasma Steroid Hormone Levels in Metformin-Treated Women with Non-Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia. - PubMed - NCBI - 0 views

  •

The implication of neuroactive steroids in Tourette syndrome pathogenesis: a role for 5α-reductase? - 0 views

  • The typical onset of TS occurs at 6–7 years of age and is characterized by the appearance of simple, recurrent motor tics, followed by the manifestation of phonic tics after several months [12]. In most children, TS symptoms undergo a progressive exacerbation, which reaches its zenith at the beginning of puberty (11–12 years of age), and is then followed by a gradual remission in the majority of patients
  • 30–40% of TS-affected children retain their symptoms in adulthood
  • Multiple neurotransmitters have been implicated in TS, including dopamine (DA), serotonin, norepinephrine, acetylcholine, glutamate and γ-amino-butyric acid (GABA)
  • ...11 more annotations...
  • female gender may predict greater tic severity in adulthood
  • male gender is a major risk factor for TS (with a male:female prevalence ratio estimated at ~4:1)
  • the typical age of onset coincides with adrenarche (6–7 years old); symptoms increase in severity until the beginning of puberty (12 years old) and then undergo a spontaneous amelioration, which becomes apparent with the end of puberty (at 18–19 years of age)
  • TS is diagnosed later in females than males
  • ample evidence supports the involvement of DAergic dysfunctions in TS
  • a number of clinical observations showed that tics in TS patients could be exacerbated by anabolic androgens
  • steroidogenic enzymes and androgen receptors may serve as putative therapeutic targets for this disorder
  • Unlike males, tic severity is typically increased after puberty in females
  • 26% of females were found to experience exacerbation of tics in the estrogenic phase of the menstrual cycle, and this phenomenon was found to be correlated with increased tic severity at menarche
  • biochemical hallmark of adrenarche is the acquisition of 17,20 lyase activity by cytochrome P450 C17 (CYP17A1)
  • increased synthesis of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and androstenedione, which leads to the growth of axillary and pubic hair as well as enhancement in the oiliness of the skin
  •  
    interesting read on hormones and tourette's.. Proposed that 5 alpha reductase activity is involved in worsening of tics.  This makes sense as Testosterone in men with low T is known to increase dopamine and dopaminergic dysfunction is known to play a role in tourette's;  the clinical presentation of girls vs boys is very different.  The authors of this article propose that 5 alpha reductase activity controls a back door method where by progesterone is converted to androgens.
