In a previous study we were the first to describe a negative correlation between circulating ghrelin concentrations and androgen levels in human plasma, suggesting an interaction between ghrelin and the endocrine regulation of reproductive physiology. We now investigated a potential direct

BACKGROUND
Combined oral contraceptives are used in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) women for the treatment of hyperandrogenism and menstrual cycle disturbances.
OBJECTIVE
To assess the effect of ethinylestradiol and cyproterone acetate (EE/CA) on endothelial function in young, non-obese PCOS women

Androgens are suggested to interact with leptin production and with insulin sensitivity in both polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and obesity. The aim of the study was to follow these interactions along with two forms of antiandrogen treatment. Twenty women with PCOS were treated with

It is well known that a strong exponential relationship exists between leptin levels and body mass index (BMI). The different serum leptin levels, however, that are observed for each BMI value, suggest that other factors, as well, interfere with leptin secretion. This study was designed in order to

Abdominal fat distribution is influenced by androgen levels in both men and women. The purpose of this study was to assess the effects on fat distribution of administering nandrolone decanoate (ND; an anabolic steroid with weak androgenic activity) or spironolactone (SP; an antiandrogen) in obese

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrinopathies affecting women of reproductive age; it is associated with hyperandrogenism, hyperinsulinemia, and dyslipidemia. This study was designed to assess the long term effects of a pure androgen receptor blocker, flutamide, on the

BACKGROUND
Hyperandrogenism, hyperinsulinaemia and obesity play a key and coordinating roles in the pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), contributing in different ways to the clinical expression of the syndrome. Weight loss is beneficial, but the additional administration of

The polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a condition characterized by hyperandrogenism and chronic oligo-anovulation. However, many features of the metabolic syndrome are inconsistently present in the majority of women with PCOS. Approximately 50% of PCOS women are overweight or obese and most of

OBJECTIVE
This review discusses androgen status in male and female obesity, according to their specific phenotype, and the main mechanisms responsible.
METHODS
Published data in the literature of the last 20 years represented the basis of most of the data and concepts incorporated in the

To assess whether androgen excess per se might impair insulin action, insulin sensitivity was measured by a two-step (20 and 80 mU/m2.min) hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp combined with indirect calorimetry and tracer glucose infusion in 43 women (13 obese and 30 nonobese) with normal glucose

The androgen receptor (AR) has context-dependent roles in breast cancer growth and progression. Overall, high tumor AR levels predict a favorable patient outcome, but several studies have established a tumor promotional role for AR, particularly in supporting the growth of estrogen receptor positive

OBJECTIVE
Precocious pubarche (PP) in girls is associated with hyperinsulinaemia and dyslipidaemia of prepubertal onset, and with ovarian hyperandrogenism and ovulatory dysfunction in adolescence, particularly if they also had prenatal growth restraint and postnatal growth acceleration.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), the most common endocrinopathy in women of reproductive age, is characterized by hyperandrogenism, anovulation, and polycystic ovaries. Although its etiology is unknown, excess androgens are thought to be a critical factor driving the pathology of PCOS. We

We have previously shown that follicle-stimulating hormone receptor haploinsufficient mice undergo early reproductive senescence with alterations in ovarian structures. The objective of this study was to treat aging (7-8 months) +/- follicle-stimulating hormone receptor mice that are destined for
