Serum Dehydroepiandrosterone, Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate, and Pregnenolone Sulfate Concentrations in Patients with Hyperthyroidism and Hypothyroidism [PDF]
Clinical Chemistry, 2000 AbstractBackground: Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) have been suggested to have protective effects against cardiovascular disease, cancer, immune-modulated diseases, and aging. We examined serum concentrations of DHEA, DHEA-S, and pregnenolone sulfate (PREG-S) in patients with thyroid dysfunction.Methods ...

Dissociation of Serum Dehydroepiandrosterone and Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate in Septic Shock [PDF]
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2006 Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) replacement in sepsis has been advocated because of the sepsis-associated decrease in serum DHEA sulfate (DHEAS). However, experimental sepsis in rodents leads to down-regulation of DHEA sulfotransferase, which inactivates DHEA to DHEAS, theoretically resulting in higher DHEA levels.The objective of the study was to test ...

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) as neuroactive neurosteroids [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1998 The observation was made that dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), as the unconjugated steroid, and its sulfate ester (DHEAS) are present in the brain of adult male rats (1). This finding was unforeseen because the rodent steroidogenic glands, including the adrenals, do not secrete significant amounts of DHEA (2).

Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate Reduces Acoustic Injury of the Guinea-Pig Cochlea
Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2005 The present study was performed to determine effects of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), a neurosteroid, on acoustic injury. Albino guinea pigs were exposed to a 2 kHz pure tone of 120 or 125 dB sound pressure level for 10 min immediately after ...
