Computational ligand discovery for the human and zebrafish sex hormone binding globulin
… ligands for the human and zebrafish sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG). The ‘benchmark set of steroids’ is a set of steroids with known affinities for human SHBG that has been widely used for validation in the development of different virtual screening methods. We have updated this …

Resting Microvascular and Autonomic Function in Relation to Age and Sex Hormone Concentrations
This study assessed the influence of estradiol, progesterone, testosterone and age on resting microvascular and autonomic function in younger and older males and females. Microvascular function was assessed with reactive hyperemia using the microvascular function index (MFI) technique (5mins …

The Association Between Sex Hormone Binding Globulin And C-Reactive Protein Levels in Premenopausal Women
… remains regarding the effect of female sex hormones on the immune system and inflammation process. Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) modulates the relative effects of estrogen and testosterone, specifically promoting estrogen effects systemically. Furthermore, estrogen enhances the …

Circulating sex hormone levels in rats: a systematic analysis of the literature and perinatal BPA study
… or progesterone (P4) levels, according to rat sex and age. We found that estradiol and testosterone, but not progesterone, were different depending on rat strain, which could possibly point to inherent differences in the hormonal regulatory systems between strains, and also potential …

Association of baseline sex hormone levels and prevalent and incident peripheral arterial disease in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis
… the role of endogenous and exogenous sex hormones (including estrogen and testosterone) in the development and treatment of cardiovascular diseases is being examined. In this thesis we evaluate the association between baseline endogenous sex hormone levels and peripheral arterial …

Imaging Prostate Cancer: Design, Synthesis, and in Vivo Testing of Steroidal and Non-Steroidal Androgen Selective PET Radiopharmaceuticals
… to the cellular AR transcription mechanism. Sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) binds testosterone, the principal circulating androgen, in high affinity and is believed to be directly involved in delivery of the hormone to cytoplasmic AR. Other high-affinity AR compounds, such as …

Psycho-endocrinological aspects in aging males and transsexual persons
Studies on the relationship between behaviour and sex steroids do not always provide consistent results. The aim of this thesis is to contribute to the clarification of certain endocrinological and psychoendocrinological aspects in two different clinical contexts. More subtle changes in androgen …

Comparison on metabolic markers and hormone level according to serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level
… diverse effects on various metabolic markers and hormone. We investigated multiple roles of vitamin D by comparing metabolic markers and hormone levels according to serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level. METHODS: We investigated 3,399 women who had periodic health examination in Ajou university hospital …

Studies on the influence of sex hormones on glucose tolerance and insulin secretion in the rat
… certain aspects of the general hypothesis that 'sex hormones participate in the physiological regulation of carbohydrate metabolism'. Studies in female rats at different stages of the oestrous cycle, following ovariectomy and during advancing age indicate that enhanced sexual endocrine function …

Early Life Determinants of Metabolic and Reproductive Health
… suggested that childhood obesity and lifetime sex hormone exposure may act as key mediating factors in this relationship. As the prevalence of obesity continues to rise globally and consequent comorbidities place an increasing burden on healthcare systems, understanding the mechanisms that link …

The effects of oestradiol administration on energy metabolism during prolonged exercise in amenorrheic athletes
… glycogen depletion. Oestradiol (the female sex hormone) has been shown to increase muscle glycogen content at rest and increase the availability of fats as a fuel source during exercise therefore delaying the onset of fatigue. The effects of oestradiol administration on energy metabolism …

The effects of fluctuations in oestrogen and progesterone during the menstrual cycle on glucose homeostasis, energy balance, exercise and premenstrual syndrome
It is widely accepted that the loss of sex hormones after the menopause is strongly linked with cancer, insulin resistance and obesity, with variations in sex hormone concentrations being responsible in part, for the differences reported in energy metabolism and glycaemic control between genders. …
