Sex hormone-binding globulin regulation of androgen bioactivity in vivo : validation of the free hormone hypothesis [PDF]
, 2016 Sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) is the high-affinity binding protein for androgens and estrogens. According to the free hormone hypothesis, SHBG modulates the bioactivity of sex steroids by limiting their diffusion into target tissues.

Immunolocalization of steroidogenic enzymes in the vaginal mucous of Galea spixii during the estrous cycle. [PDF]
, 2017 BackgroundThe synthesis of sex steroids is controlled by several enzymes such as17α-hydroxylase cytochrome P450 (P450c17) catalyzing androgen synthesis and aromatase cytochrome P450 (P450arom) catalyzing estrogen synthesis, both of which must complex ...

Gender ideology, same-sex peer group affiliation and the relationship between testosterone and dominance in adolescent boys and girls [PDF]
, 2010 Although the role of testosterone in the aetiology of social dominance is often suggested, surprisingly few studies have addressed the relationship between sex steroid hormones and dominance as a personality trait. In this paper, the relationship between
