- The effect of aggressive rosuvastatin treatment on steroid hormone production in men with coronary artery disease.
- Krysiak R1, Okopien B.Author information 1Department of Internal Medicine and Clinical Pharmacology, Medical University of Silesia, Katowice, Poland.AbstractMost steroid hormones are produced from cholesterol contained in low-density lipoproteins, which is uptaken by the gonads and adrenal cortex, and used as a substrate for steroidogenesis. Theoretically, in states associated with very low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels, cholesterol conversion to steroid hormones may be impaired. The study included 15 men with coronary artery disease, in whom initial statin treatment had been unsuccessful and therefore was replaced with rosuvastatin (20-40 mg daily). Although in 11 patients, rosuvastatin decreased plasma LDL cholesterol levels to below 70 mg/dL, the drug only moderately reduced testosterone levels and increased gonadotropin levels, as well as insignificantly increased plasma ACTH levels. Aggressive rosuvastatin treatment did not affect plasma cortisol and dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate levels, and urine free cortisol. Our results suggest that intensive rosuvastatin treatment is associated with only small changes in adrenal and testicular steroidogenesis.

- Nigerian bonny light crude oil induces endocrine disruption in male rats.
- Adedara IA1, Ebokaiwe AP, Mathur PP, Farombi EO.Author information 1Drug Metabolism and Toxicology Research Laboratories, Department of Biochemistry, College of Medicine, University of Ibadan , Ibadan , Nigeria and.AbstractAbstract Exposure to Nigerian bonny light crude oil (BLCO) in the southern part of Nigeria has been reported to be associated with reproductive toxicity, but there is paucity of information on its interference with steroidogenesis. This study investigated the influence of BLCO on testicular steroidogenesis and plasma levels of hormones from the pituitary and thyroid components of the brain-pituitary-testicular axis. Adult male Wistar rats were orally treated with BLCO dissolved in corn oil at 0, 200 and 800 mg/kg for 7 days. Immunoblot analysis revealed that BLCO exposure suppressed steroid acute regulatory protein and androgen-binding protein expression with concomitant decrease in 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (HSD) and 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activities. BLCO exposure significantly decreased plasma concentrations of follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, prolactin and intratesticular testosterone, but elevated thyrotropin, triiodothyronine and thyroxine above the control values. The data presented herein indicate that undue exposure to BLCO has an inhibitory effect on testicular steroidogenesis. The underlying mechanisms for BLCO-induced testicular dysfunction may involve its disruptive effect on the brain-pituitary-testicular axis. These observations highlight the potential risk to public health for a population where, unfortunately, oil spillages occur frequently.

- Effect of SMP-028 on steroidogenesis in rats; mechanism of toxicological events on endocrine organs of rats.
- Nishizato Y1, Imai S2, Yabunaka A2, Okahashi N3, Kunimatsu T2, Yabuki M2.Author information 1Preclinical Research Laboratories, Dainippon Sumitomo Pharma Co., Ltd., Japan. Electronic address: yohei-nishizato@ds-pharma.co.jp.2Preclinical Research Laboratories, Dainippon Sumitomo Pharma Co., Ltd., Japan.3Research Planning & Intelligence, Dainippon Sumitomo Pharma Co., Ltd., Japan.AbstractSMP-028 is a new compound for treatment of asthma. Oral administration of SMP-028 to rats was associated with toxicological events in endocrine organs. These events mainly consisted of pathological changes in the adrenal gland, testis, prostate, seminal vesicle, ovaries, and uterus. In this study, we set to clarify whether SMP-028 inhibits steroidogenesis in primary culture cells obtained from rat endocrine organs in vitro. Adrenal cells, testicular cells, and ovarian cells were treated with SMP-028 and the production of steroid hormones, i.e., progesterone, aldosterone, corticosterone, total testosterone, and estradiol from these cells was measured by radioimmunoassay. We found that the production of progesterone from these cells treated with SMP-028 at 1μM decreased to 16-67% that of the control. These findings indicate that SMP-028 inhibits steroidogenesis in rat endocrine organs in vitro. Considering that free maximum concentration in rats treated with SMP-028 are higher than the IC50 values for the inhibition of steroidogenesis in vitro, it is therefore believed that the toxicological events seen in rats following treatment with SMP-028 are due to inhibition of steroidogenesis in vivo.
