Pregnane X Receptor Regulates Human Endocrine System by Inducing Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin Expression. [PDF]

Basic Clin Pharmacol Toxicol
ABSTRACT Sex hormone–binding globulin (SHBG) is a sex hormone carrier. We aimed to characterize the role of pregnane X receptor (PXR), a major regulator of drug metabolism, in SHBG regulation. Serum SHBG was measured in four clinical trials (n = 61) and expression in in vitro experiments in human 3D hepatocyte spheroids and HepG2 cells.

DHEA Supplementation Confers No Additional Benefit to that of Growth Hormone on Pregnancy and Live Birth Rates in IVF Patients Categorized as Poor Prognosis

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2018
BackgroundIn vitro fertilization (IVF) patients receive various adjuvant therapies to enhance success rates, but the true benefit is actively debated. Growth hormone (GH) and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) supplementation were assessed in women undergoing

Neuroactive steroids in depression and anxiety disorders: Clinical studies [PDF]

, 2006
Certain neuroactive steroids modulate ligand-gated ion channels via non-genomic mechanisms. Especially 3 alpha-reduced pregnane steroids are potent positive allosteric modulators of the gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA(A)) receptor.

An Improved Dehydroepiandrosterone-Induced Rat Model of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): Post-pubertal Improve PCOS's Features

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2018
Complete animal models investigating the pathogenesis and treatment of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) are not completely established. Although dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)-induced pre-pubertal rat model for PCOS has been widely used, the model ...
