BACKGROUND Circulating Sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) levels are inversely associated with insulin resistance. This study was conducted to compare maternal serum SHBG level between pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance and those with gestational diabetes (GDM) and to investigate the roll of SHBG in GDM diagnosis. METHODS This was a case controlled study of 90 pregnant women, 45 wo...
BACKGROUND Decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) levels, and the metabolic syndrome, are all closely associated with a higher prevalence of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. We investigated the association between HDL-C, SHBG and the metabolic syndrome in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). METHODS AND RESULTS Among 106 y...
BACKGROUND Sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) has been proposed as a biomarker of MetS in children and adults. We aim to determine the associations of SHBG with components of MetS in children from the Middle-East where the prevalence of MetS are on the rise. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, a total of 509 randomly selected school children (226 boys and 283 girls) aged 12-16 years were ...
OBJECTIVE Recent data suggested that sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) levels decrease when fat accumulates in the liver and that circulating SHBG may be causally involved in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes in humans. In the present study, we investigated mechanisms by which high SHBG may prevent development to diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Before and during a 9-month lifestyle ...
BACKGROUND The causal role of circulating sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) for type 2 diabetes is controversial. Information on the relations between SHBG and new biomarkers of cardiometabolic risk is scarce. METHODS We applied quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance metabolomics in three Finnish population-based cohorts to comprehensively profile circulating lipids and metabolites and stu...
Recently, much evidence has indicated that sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG) play a role in the intracellular action of sex steroids in target cells. In the present work, expression of SHBG mRNA and CBG mRNA was demonstrated in tissues of human normal endometrium and pelvic endometriosis, using the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-P...
OBJECTIVE To assess the associations between measures of adiposity and sex hormone- binding globulin (SHBG) and to evaluate whether such associations differ by race. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Adiposity was measured by anthropometry and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry among women (146 white, 50 black, and 25 Asian) aged 18-44 years in the BioCycle study. SHBG was repeatedly measured over on...
Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus is a common metabolic disorder in pregnancy. Low levels of sex hormone–binding globulin level (SHBG) is associated with increased insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia. The aim of this study was comparison of SHBG levels between gestational diabetic pregnant women and normal ones. Methods: Serum SHBG concentration were measured in 38 women with gest...
Androgen plays a vital role in prostate cancer development. However, it is not clear whether androgens influence stem-like properties of prostate cancer, a feature important for prostate cancer progression. In this study, we show that upon DHT treatment in vitro, prostate cancer cell lines LNCaP and PC-3 were revealed with higher clonogenic potential and higher expression levels of stemness rel...
Human sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) binds sex steroids with high affinity. In plasma, the number of SHBG steroid-binding sites far exceeds the molar concentrations of sex steroids, and will accommodate other ligands such as phytoestrogens and fatty acids. We have therefore developed a screening assay to identify ligands for SHBG, which exist in our diet or environment. This assay allows t...
