چکیده
Investigating the interference of danazol in testosterone radioimmunoassays, we measured serum testosterone concentrations in the serum of women receiving danazol, with three testosterone radioimmunoassay kits. All of these showed positive interference by danazol or its metabolites (or both). Values for testosterone obtained with two of the methods (Diagnostic Products Corp. and Farmos Diagnostica) depended on the volume of serum extracted per assay tube. A detailed column-chromatographic method is presented in which testosterone is resolved from danazol and its metabolites.

Positive interference by danazol in a testosterone radioimmunoassay kit procedure.
We describe a problem in measuring serum testosterone concentrations in the serum of women who are taking danazol. The Diagnostic Products Corporation testosterone radioimmunoassay gives very high apparent testosterone concentrations in these women and the value obtained depends on the volume of serum extracted per assay tube. Chromatography of the serum extracts on Sephadex LH-20, but not on C...
متن کاملDanazol-induced biochemical changes in the rat ovary.
Effect of varying doses of danazol, a synthetic steroid derivative of 17 alpha-ethinyl testosterone has been observed on the biochemistry of the rat ovary. Biochemically total proteins decreased and total lipids increased with the danazol treatment. Triglycerides, the stored form of lipids formed the major components of lipids in the treated ovaries. The amount of phospholipids, glycolipids, ch...

-Gonadotrophins, oestradiol, androstenedione, testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHAS) were measured sequentially in 72 patients with advanced breast cancer receiving endocrine therapy of various types. Tamoxifen significantly reduced gonadotrophins but did not effect other hormones. Danazol also reduced gonadotrophins. Aminoglutethimide (AGT) reduced oestradiol and DHAS but had ...
متن کاملEffect of danazol on the biochemical abnormality of inherited antithrombin III deficiency.
Seven members of a family affected by hereditary antithrombin III deficiency were identified. The disorder was associated with recurrent spontaneous episodes of phlebitis, deep venous thrombosis, and pulmonary embolism in middle age. Danazol, a 17-alkyl derivative of ethinyl testosterone, which has been used to treat other antiprotease deficiency states, was assessed in the management of two me...
