11-Oxygenated C19 Steroids Are the Predominant Androgens in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Context Androgen excess is a defining feature of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), but the exact origin of hyperandrogenemia remains a matter of debate. Recent studies have highlighted the importance of the 11-oxygenated C19 steroid pathway to androgen metabolism in humans. In this study, we analyzed the contribution of 11-oxygenated androgens to androgen excess in women with PCOS. Methods On...
متن کاملA new dawn for androgens: Novel lessons from 11-oxygenated C19 steroids.
The abundant adrenal C19 steroid 11β-hydroxyandrostenedione (11OHA4) has been written off as a dead-end product of adrenal steroidogenesis. However, recent evidence has demonstrated that 11OHA4 is the precursor to the potent androgenic 11-oxygenated steroids, 11-ketotestosterone and 11-ketodihydrotestosterone, that bind and activate the human androgen receptor similarly to testosterone and DHT....
متن کاملPaper chromatography of C19 steroids.
The successful use of paper chromatography for t.he separation of corticoids (2) suggested the general usefulness of this procedure for relat,ed compounds. Two procedures for t.he separation of cardiac glycosides and aglycones have been described (3, 1). Preliminary reports (5, G) and a reference (7) have been made on methods for other steroid hormones. This paper describes an effective system ...
متن کاملAge-related changes in the morphology of cerebral capillaries do not correlate with cognitive decline.
The effects of age on cerebral capillaries have been examined in area 46 of the prefrontal cortices of sixteen rhesus monkeys, ranging in age from 5 to 35 years. Fourteen of the monkeys had been behaviorally tested prior to their brains being prepared for electron microscopic examination. It was found that whereas the thickness of the outer basal lamina adjacent to the glial limiting membrane i...
متن کاملCirculating Growth Differentiation Factor 11/8 Levels Decline With Age.
RATIONALE Growth differentiation factor 11 (GDF11) and GDF8 are members of the transforming growth factor-β superfamily sharing 89% protein sequence homology. We have previously shown that circulating GDF11 levels decrease with age in mice. However, a recent study by Egerman et al reported that GDF11/8 levels increase with age in mouse serum. OBJECTIVE Here, we clarify the direction of change...
