Androgens and Androgen Receptor Actions on Bone Health and Disease: From Androgen Deficiency to Androgen Therapy [PDF]
Cells, 2019 Androgens are not only essential for bone development but for the maintenance of bone mass. Therefore, conditions with androgen deficiency, such as male hypogonadism, androgen-insensitive syndromes, and prostate cancer with androgen deprivation therapy ...

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

Attenuated androgen discontinuation in patients with hereditary angioedema: a commented case series
Allergy, Asthma & Clinical Immunology, 2022 Background Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is characterized by potentially severe and life-threatening attacks of localized swelling. Prophylactic therapies are available, including attenuated androgens. Efficacy of attenuated androgens has not been assessed

Estrogens and Androgens in Plants: The Last 20 Years of Studies
Plants, 2021 Although the only known steroid hormones in plants are brassinosteroids, interestingly, mammalian steroid hormones such as androgens or estrogens are also part of the plant metabolic profile. This presented review is focused on the progress that has been

Impact of circulating cholesterol levels on growth and intratumoral androgen concentration of prostate tumors. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common cancer in men. Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) leads to tumor involution and reduction of tumor burden.

ANDROGENS REGULATE T47D CELLS MOTILITY AND INVASION THROUGH ACTIN CYTOSKELETON REMODELLING
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2016 The relationship between androgens and breast cancer is controversial. Androgens have complex effects on breast cancer progression and metastasis. Moreover, androgens receptor (AR) is expressed in approximately 70% to 90% of invasive breast carcinomas ...

Ornithine Decarboxylase Activity Is Required for Prostatic Budding in the Developing Mouse Prostate. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The prostate is a male accessory sex gland that produces secretions in seminal fluid to facilitate fertilization. Prostate secretory function is dependent on androgens, although the mechanism by which androgens exert their effects is still unclear ...
