testosterone/sarcoma

Intraperitoneal testosterone administration stimulated the growth of subcutaneously transplanted cell line of human osteogenic sarcoma in nude rats but did not provoke tumour metastasizing to other organs and tissues. The specific connection of androgens with receptor proteins in the cytosol

OBJECTIVE To measure serum androgen concentrations in men with HIV related Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) who had been treated with recombinant interferon (IFN) alpha-2a to determine the role of androgens on the development of KS lesions. METHODS 32 men with HIV related KS who had been treated with IFN were

Rat neoplasms induced by methylating carcinogens frequently contain ras genes activated by a single point mutation. Rat prostatic tumors induced by a combination of a single injection of N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) and long-term treatment with testosterone were examined for the presence of such

Plasma testosterone (T) was measured by radioimmunoassay in both healthy and diseased, mature (8-11 months) and senescent (29-31 months) C57BL/6J male mice. Pathological lesions in diseased mice included reticulum cell sarcoma and enlarged mesenteric lymph nodes. In healthy mice neither plasma T nor

Cancer incidence and mortality are higher in males than in females, suggesting that some gender-related factors are behind such a difference. To analyze this phenomenon the most recent Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database served to access cancer survival data for the US

OBJECTIVE Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), the most common soft-tissue sarcoma in childhood, rarely affects adults, preferring male. RMS expresses the receptor for androgen (AR) and responds to androgen; however, the molecular action of androgens on RMS is unknown. METHODS Herein, testosterone (T) effects

Osteogenic sarcoma developed in a 14-year-old boy 13 years after he had partially recovered from chloramphenicol-induced aplastic anemia. A possible relationship is considered between aplastic anemia, chloramphenicol, testosterone, prednisone, and osteogenic sarcoma. Leukemia has been reported

OBJECTIVE The metabolic syndrome (MS), a cluster of central obesity, dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia, and hypertension, conveys an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. This cross-sectional study investigated the prevalence of metabolic syndrome traits (MST) in long-term

The effect of a single dose of bacterial endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS) was compared with that of tumor implantation in mice on the activity of several hepatic cytochrome P-450-dependent monooxygenases. These included ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase, p-nitrophenol hydroxylase, aminopyrine

The influence of estrogen, progesterone and testosterone on the activities of alkaline and acid phosphatases, adenosine triphosphatase and succinate dehydrogenase were determined by cytochemical methods in sarcoma 180 and Ehrlich's carcinoma cells transplanted in male and female Swiss mice. The

The influence of estrogen, progesterone and testosterone on the activities of alkaline and acid phosphatases, adenosine triphosphatase and succinate dehydrogenase were determined by cytochemical methods in sarcoma 180 and Ehrlich's carcinoma cells transplanted in male and female Swiss mice. The

Basal levels of secretion of total testosterone, estradiol-17 beta, their free, albumin-binding and sex steroid-binding globulin (SSBG)--binding fractions, luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, prolactin and somatotropic hormone were measured in blood serum in the following groups of

The paper deals with a comparison of basal levels of secretion of total testosterone (T) and estradiol-17 beta (E2), their free and albumin and sex-steroid-binding globulin fractions as well as LH, FSH, prolactin and STH in blood serum of 60 normal height and 60 tall healthy adolescents and those
