Quantification of steroid hormones in free‐ranging Apennine wolf Canis lupus italicus hair samples collected post‐mortem

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
After decades of dramatic reductions in their populations, Italian wolves have begun recolonizing parts of their historic range. This growth in populations can lead to potential conflicts with human activities, which remain the main cause of wolf mortality.

Metabolism of Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate and Estrone-Sulfate by Human Platelets

Physiological Research, 2012
The aim of the present research was to study the uptake of DHEAS, and to establish the intracrine capacity of human platelets to produce sex steroid hormones. The DHEAS transport was evaluated through the uptake of [3H]-DHEAS in the presence or absence of different substrates through the organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) family.

Hypercortisolism: Causes, Consequences and Clinical Significance – A Review of Pathophysiology

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hypercortisolism or Cushing syndrome is a heterogeneous clinical spectrum caused by chronic glucocorticoid excess, ranging from exogenous Cushing syndrome to rare endogenous aetiologies and the increasingly recognised entity of mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS). Physiological cortisol production is tightly regulated by the hypothalamic–

Circulating sex hormones in relation to anthropometric, sociodemographic and behavioural factors in an international dataset of 12,300 men.

PLoS ONE, 2017
IntroductionSex hormones have been implicated in the etiology of a number of diseases. To better understand disease etiology and the mechanisms of disease-risk factor associations, this analysis aimed to investigate the associations of anthropometric ...

Liver cirrhosis is associated with altered glucocorticoid metabolism related to disease severity

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Liver cirrhosis (LC) is frequently complicated by adrenal dysfunction; however, whether cirrhosis drives the coordinated, pathway‐specific reprogramming of cortisol metabolism remains unclear. Objectives We aimed to characterize axis‐specific alterations in cortisol metabolism in patients with LC, those with adrenal insufficiency ...

Physiological and anatomical determinants of placental drug transfer

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Fetal exposure to pharmaceuticals and their subsequent clearance back to the maternal circulation are governed by placental transfer. Passive diffusion down a maternal‐to‐fetal concentration gradient is the primary route of fetal drug exposure, with specific compounds undergoing transporter‐mediated transfer.

The Association of Dehydroepiandrosterone and Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate with Obesity, Waist-hip Ratio, and Insulin Resistance in Postmenopausal Women

Endocrinology Research and Practice, 2022
Recent studies revealed that oral dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) reduced weight gain in genetically obese mice without affecting their food intake. We aimed to compare the association of DHEA and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) levels with obesity,
