Classic and backdoor pathways of androgen biosynthesis in human sexual development [PDF]

Annals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2022
Both genes and hormones regulate human sexual development. Although ovarian hormones are not essential for female external genitalia development, male sexual development requires the action of testicular testosterone and dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is

Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein Mediates the Effects of Androgen on Hippocampal PSD95 Expression and Dendritic Spines Density/Morphology and Autism-Like Behaviors Through miR-125a

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
Dysregulated synaptic plasticity is a key feature of neurodevelopmental disorders, including autism. This study investigated whether Fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP), a selective RNA-binding protein that regulates synaptic protein expression ...

Androgen regulation of the androgen receptor coregulators [PDF]

BMC Cancer, 2008
Abstract Background The critical role of the androgen receptor (AR) in the development of prostate cancer is well recognized. The transcriptional activity of AR is partly regulated by coregulatory proteins. It has been suggested that these coregulators could also be important in the progression of prostate cancer. The

Divergent Associations Between Serum Androgens and Ovarian Reserve Markers Revealed in Patients With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
BackgroundThe role of excess androgen in ovarian reserve remains unclear in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Our study highlights the associations of serum androgen levels and ovarian reserve markers in PCOS and non-PCOS women ...

Updates on androgen replacement therapy and lower urinary tract symptoms: a narrative review

The Aging Male, 2022
Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are caused by higher tension at the bladder neck level (due to fibrosis or stiffness) or benign prostatic hyperplasia, which causes static obstruction of the bladder outlet. Both forms cause a group of symptoms such as
