Photo-DHEA—A functional photoreactive dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) analog
Steroids, 2011The steroid hormone dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) has beneficial effects on vascular function, survival of neurons, and fatty acid metabolism. However, a specific receptor for DHEA has not been identified to date. Here, we describe the synthesis of a photoreactive DHEA derivative (Photo-DHEA).

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) treatment of depression
Biological Psychiatry, 1997Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and its sulfate, DHEA-S, are plentiful adrenal steroid hormones that decrease with aging and may have significant neuropsychiatric effects. In this study, six middle-aged and elderly patients with major depression and low basal plasma DHEA f1p4or DHEA-S levels were openly administered DHEA (30-90 mg/d x 4 weeks) in doses ...

Neuroactive neurosteroids: dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and DHEA sulphate
Acta Paediatrica, 1999Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and its sulphate ester (DHEAS) are neuroactive and are both imported into the brain from the circulation and produced in the nervous system. These neurosteroids have neurotrophic and excitatiory effets, and further study is needed to delineate their physiological and pathological functions.

Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1996
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and DHEA-sulfate (DHEAS) represent the major androgens secreted by the adrenal gland. Various functions including metabolic, immune, and cognitive effects have been attributed to this steroid and are reviewed here. Since the levels of DHEA correlate with general good health, and aging is associated with a decline in the ...

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and aging
Archives of Gerontology and Geriatrics, 1997Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) is the most abundant circulating steroid hormone in humans and can readily be converted to its parent steroid DHEA by tissue sulfatases. Yet, a biologic function for these steroids has not been defined. The link between DHEA and aging has been raised by: (1) its well documented age-related decline, and (2) a ...

A review of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)
Integrative Psychological and Behavioral Science, 1995Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is quantitatively the most abundant hormone in humans and mammals, with a wide variety of physiological effects, including major regulatory effects upon the immune system. Two of the most striking aspects of DHEA are a steady decline in DHEA with age and a significant deficiency in DHEA in patients with several major ...

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and DHEA-Sulfate (DS) as Therapeutic Options in Menopause
Seminars in Reproductive Medicine, 1998In recent years, there has been increasing interest in the potential of androgen replacement in menopausal women and specifically adrenal androgen replacement. There is unfortunately increasing unmonitored use of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) among adults in the United States with only limited and preliminary human data. An extensive body of literature

Altered DHEA and DHEAS Response to Exercise in Healthy Older Adults
Journal of Aging and Physical Activity, 2009Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and its sulfate (DHEAS) are hormones produced by the adrenal cortex that decline in concentration with age. Decreased DHEA levels are associated with age-related disease and oxidative stress but might be increased in younger adults by exercise.
