The objective of this study was to evaluate the level of hormone variation between the peripheral blood and spermatic vein plexus in patients with varicoceles. A total of 23 patients diagnosed with varicoceles were enrolled in the study. All patients underwent a testicular artery-sparing microsurgic

Theriogenology.Theriogenology.2016 Jan 15;85(2):238-46. doi: 10.1016/j.theriogenology.2015.09.036. Epub 2015 Sep 26.
Secretions of chloride (Cl(-))- and bicarbonate (HCO3(-))-rich fluid by the seminal vesicles could involve cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR), which activity can be stimulated by cAMP generated from the reaction involving adenylate cyclase (AC). In this study, we investigated levels of C

Steroids in house sparrows (Passer domesticus): Effects of POPs and male quality signalling.

Nossen I1, Ciesielski TM1, Dimmen MV1, Jensen H2, Ringsby TH2, Polder A3, Rønning B2, Jenssen BM1, Styrishave B4.
The Science of the total environment.Sci Total Environ.2016 Jan 11;547:295-304. doi: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2015.12.113. [Epub ahead of print]
At high trophic levels, environmental contaminants have been found to affect endocrinological processes. Less attention has been paid to species at lower trophic levels. The house sparrow (Passer domesticus) may be a useful model for investigating effects of POPs in mid-range trophic level species.

Dihydrotestosterone Inhibits Interleukin-1α or Tumor Necrosis Factor α-Induced Proinflammatory Cytokine Production via Androgen Receptor-Dependent Inhibition of Nuclear Factor-κB Activation in Rheumatoid Fibroblast-Like Synovial Cell Line

Biological & Pharmaceutical Bulletin 34(11), 1724-1730, 2011
… We found that a potent androgen, 5α-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibits IL-1α-induced production and mRNA expression of IL-8, IL-6 and IL-1β from RA patient-derived fibroblast-like synovial cell line MH7A. … DHT also inhibited the effects of TNFα on the cells overexpressed with AR, indicating that sufficient expression level of functional AR was necessary for the inhibitory effect of DHT on TNFα. …

Adrenal androgen levels as predictors of outcome in castration-resistant prostate cancer patients treated with combined androgen blockade using flutamide as a second-line anti-androgen

International journal of urology 17(4), 337-345, 2010-04-01
… Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), androstenedione, androstenediol, testosterone and dihydrotestosterone were measured to investigate the relationship between plasma androgens and outcome following treatment. … Results: Second-line hormonal therapy using flutamide resulted in a reduction of the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level in 14 (87.5%) of 16 patients. … PSA elevation of baseline androstenediol level was a predictive factor of PSA responsiveness. …
