2-Acetyl-7-oxo-1, 2, 3, 4, 4a, 4b, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 10a-dodecahydrophenanthrene possesses androgenic activity when applied directly to the chick's comb. This action is in addition to the antiandrogenic activity previously reported for this compound. This is the first demonstration of androgenic activity by a compound not possessing the steroid nucleus.

Androgens and Androgen Receptor in Dermatology
2002In addition to male sexual development and maturation, androgens also mediate sebum secretion and hair growth. The effect of androgens is mainly through their binding to the androgen receptor (AR) which is a nuclear receptor superfamily member. These androgen-AR complexes then enhance their target genes’ expression by binding to response elements in ...

The purpose of the study was to determine whether maternal serum levels of androgens, especially testosterone, are higher in patients with preeclampsia than in matched normotensive control subjects.Serum testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, sex hormone binding globulin, and estradiol levels were measured in 16 subjects in the third trimester ...

Testosterone is the principal circulating androgen in men, secreted almost entirely by the testes. The effects of testosterone on bone in men are therefore best observed when they are deficient in testosterone and then replaced with testosterone. The effects of physiologic concentrations of testosterone in men, as observed in these situations, are ...

In this presentation several of the reasons why androgenic hormones might be responsible for some of the effects of physical training and for some of the differences among individuals in athletic ability have been outlined. It seems apparent that minimal amounts of androgen are necessary to produce the normal differences between males and females in ...

Publisher Summary The endocrine physiology of the male and the interplay of the several hormones associated with sex determination, fetal development, and, following birth, growth and sexual maturation. The hormones of masculinity are comprised of the gonadotropins, luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone, produced by the anterior ...

Puberty is associated with an increasing production of androgenic steroids. Adrenal androgen formation, termed adrenarche, may precede gonadal testosterone synthesis. Both adrenal and gonadal androgens exert their biological effects via the androgen receptor, a nuclear transcription factor modulating a specific transcription regulation of largely ...

Androgens have profound effects on scalp and body hair in humans. Scalp hair grows constitutively in the absence of androgens, while body hair growth is dependent on the action of androgens. Androgenetic alopecia, referred to as male pattern hair loss (MPHL) in men and female pattern hair loss (FPHL) in women, is due to the progressive miniaturization ...

Androgen therapy is being increasingly used in the management of postmenopausal women. The most common indication is to improve sexual function. The aim of this review is to evaluate current knowledge pertaining to testosterone and sexual function in postmenopausal women.The change of testosterone levels during the menopause transition remains ...
