Reduced Dehydroepiandrosterone-Sulfate Levels in the Mid-Luteal Subphase of the Menstrual Cycle: Implications to Women’s Health Research

Metabolites, 2022
The regulation of DHEA-sulfate by steroid sulfotransferase (SULT) and steryl-sulfatase (STS) enzymes is a vital process for the downstream formation of many steroid hormones. DHEA-sulfate is the most abundant steroid hormone in the human body; thus, DHEA-

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).

A High Serum Cortisol/DHEA-S Ratio Is a Risk Factor for Sarcopenia in Elderly Diabetic Patients

Journal of the Endocrine Society, 2019
Context Elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have a high prevalence of frailty and/or sarcopenia. Sarcopenia is thought to be related to discordant secretions of the adrenal hormones cortisol and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), as well as

Impacts of adrenarcheal DHEA levels on spontaneous cortical activity during development

Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2022
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) production is closely associated with the first pubertal hormonal event, adrenarche. Few studies have documented the relationships between DHEA and functional brain development, with even fewer examining the associations ...
