Low Levels of Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate in Younger Burnout Patients. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEA-s) is an anabolic protective hormone of importance for maintenance of health. DHEA-s levels peak in young adults and decline thereafter with age.

Androgen deficiency in women with adrenal insufficiency. Dehydroepiandrosterone. Review [PDF]

Гинекология, 2018
It is known that adrenal insufficiency (AI) is a severe life-threatening disease due to the exceptional role of glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids in the human body. At the same time, according to some reports, the deficit of androgens synthesized by

Age, adrenal steroids, and cognitive functioning in captive chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) [PDF]

PeerJ, 2022
Background Dehydroepiandrosterone-sulfate is the most abundant circulating androgen in humans and other catarrhines. It is involved in several biological functions, such as testosterone production, glucocorticoid antagonist actions, neurogenesis and ...

Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate/cortisol ratio in cirrhotic patients with septic shock: another sign of hepatoadrenal syndrome?

Critical Care, 2017
Background Cirrhotic patients are susceptible to sepsis and critical illness-related corticosteroid insufficiency (CIRCI). Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) is a corticotropin-dependent adrenal androgen, which has immunostimulating and ...

Dehydroepiandrosterone and Dehydroepiandrosterone-Sulfate and Emotional Processing

, 2018
Steroid hormones are important regulators of brain development, physiological function, and behavior. Among them, dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and dehydroepiandrosterone-sulfate (DHEAS) also do modulate emotional processing and may have mood enhancement effects.

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 ...

Novel lipoidal derivatives of pregnenolone and dehydroepiandrosterone and absence of their sulfated counterparts in rodent brain

Journal of Lipid Research, 2004
A new sample preparation method coupled to GC-MS analysis was developed and validated for quantification of sulfate esters of pregnenolone (PREG-S) and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA-S) in rat brain.

Estradiol-secreting adrenal oncocytoma in a 31-year old male

Urology Case Reports, 2022
Oncocytic adrenocortical tumors (OAT) are rare and often are non-functional. We report a unique case of an estradiol-secreting adrenal oncocytoma in a 31-year-old male discovered upon an infertility and gynecomastia work-up.

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 ...
