Testosterone, Dehydroepiandrosterone, and Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate in Hyperandrogenic Women

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1984
Serum levels of testosterone (T), dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), and DHEA sulfate (DHEA-S) were measured in a group of 285 women with clinical signs of hyperandrogenism (hirsutism and/or acne). Levels of T were elevated in 75.8% of the patients, DHEA in 57.5%, and DHEA-S in 20%. Normal levels of all 3 androgens were found in 13.3%.

Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate and dehydroepiandrosterone: neuroactive neurosteroids

Current Opinion in Endocrinology & Diabetes, 2000
During the last five years, advances have been made in understanding of the role of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) in the central nervous system (CNS). It has become clear that the two molecules can be qualified as neurosteroids and neuroactive steroids.

Dehydroepiandrosterone and sport

Medical Journal of Australia, 1999
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a weak androgen, but is one of the main precursors of testosterone. Athletes use it for its androgenic and anticatabolic effects and it has been described as a "wonder drug", although there is little evidence to support these claims. There are no published studies of the long-term effects of taking DHEA, particularly in

DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE AND OBESITY

Nutrition Reviews, 2009
A recent study suggests that the reduced urinary excretion of dehydroepinadrosterone and the elevated red blood cell glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity seen in obese subjects may be reversed during periods of weight loss.

Dehydroepiandrosterone and Addiction

2018
Drug addiction has a great negative influence on society, both social and economic burden. It was widely thought that addicts could choose to stop using drugs if only they had some self-control and principles. Nowadays, science has changed this view, defining drug addiction as a complex brain disease that affects behavior in many ways, both biological ...

Dehydroepiandrosterone Replacement Therapy

Seminars in Reproductive Medicine, 2004
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) replacement therapy has attracted considerable attention over recent years. Significant beneficial effects of DHEA replacement have been reported in patients representing the pathophysiological model of complete DHEA deficiency, in other words, adrenal insufficiency (AI). This includes effects on well-being, energy levels,

Dehydroepiandrosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate metabolism in human genital skin

Fertility and Sterility, 1990
Genital skin samples were obtained from normal women and men to determine the extent of conversion of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and other androgen metabolites and to assess sulfatase activity. The skin samples were minced and incubated with 3H-DHEA or 3H-dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (3H-DHEAS) in medium for 1 hour at ...

Synthesis of 7α-hydroxy-dehydroepiandrosterone and 7β-hydroxy-dehydroepiandrosterone

Steroids, 2005
The fermentation of dehydroepiandrosterone synthesized from the starting material diosgenin using Mucor racemosus produced 7alpha-hydroxy-dehydroepiandrosterone and 7beta-hydroxy-dehydroepiandrosterone. The bioactivity of the microbial metabolites is also discussed. The species M.

METABOLISM OF DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE AND DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE SULPHATE BY THE HUMAN FOETUS AT MIDPREGNANCY

Acta Endocrinologica, 1966
ABSTRACT Four previable foetuses (18th to 20th week of gestation) were perfused with a combination of 14C-labelled dehydroepiandrosterone (DHA) and 3H-labelled dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHAS). Approximately 80% of the radioactive material administered was recovered from the various foetal tissues and perfusates.

Circulating Concentrations of Dehydroepiandrosterone and Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate During Puberty

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1975
In order to quantitate the chronological change in circulating dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DS) levels during the period of sexual maturation, serum DHEA and DS concentration (3-5 PM) in 76 boys and 65 girls (ages 8 to 15) as well as in adult male and female subjects were measured by a specific and sensitive ...
