Testosterone Reduces Knee Passive Range of Motion and Expression of Relaxin Receptor Isoforms via 5α-Dihydrotestosterone and Androgen Receptor Binding
Ovarian steroids such as estrogen and progesterone have been reported to influence knee laxity. The effect of testosterone, however, remains unknown. This study investigated the effect of testosterone on the knee range of motion (ROM) and the molecular mechanisms that might involve changes in the expression of relaxin receptor isoforms, Rxfp1 and Rxfp2 in the patella tendon and lateral collater...
متن کاملZinc in hypothalamus and hypophysis of the rat.
Zinc has been located using both histochemical and autoradiographic procedures in the neurons of the nuclei of the hypothalamic medial area and in some adenohypophisary cells. Some suggestions about the functional significance of the presence of Zn in these places are made.
متن کاملEffects of 5α-Dihydrotestosterone and 17β-Estradiol on the Mouse Ovarian Follicle Development and Oocyte Maturation
We have previously reported that androstenedione induces abnormalities of follicle development and oocyte maturation in the mouse ovary. In granulosa cells of the ovarian follicle, androstenedione is aromatized to 17β-estradiol (E2). To determine whether the androgen or estrogen acts directly on the follicle to induce the above-mentioned abnormalities, we compared the effects of a non-aromatiza...
متن کاملAndrogen-mediated modulation of macrophage function following trauma-hemorrhage: The central role of 5α-dihydrotestosterone
Androgens have been implicated as the causative factor for the post-injury immune dysfunction in males; however, it remains unknown whether androgens directly affect macrophages. To study this, male mice were sham-operated or subjected to trauma (i.e., midline laparotomy) and hemorrhagic shock (MAP 30 ± 5 mmHg for 90 min and then resuscitated). The mice received the 5α-reductase inhibitor 4-hyd...
متن کاملDiagnosis of 5α–reductase 2 deficiency: is measurement of dihydrotestosterone essential?
BACKGROUND 5α-Reductase 2 deficiency (5ARD) is a known cause of 46,XY disorders of sex development (DSD). Traditionally, the diagnosis relies on dihydrotestosterone (DHT) measurement, but the results are often equivocal, potentially leading to misdiagnosis. We reviewed alternative approaches for diagnosis of 5ARD. METHODS We conducted a retrospective review of the results of urinary steroid p...
