Androgens, such as testosterone and dihydrotestosterone (DHT), are essential for male sexual development, masculinisation, spermatogenesis, and general lifelong health. Androgens are predominantly synthesised in the testes of mice (~95%) by highly specialised cells known as the Leydig cells. There a...

Context: Although androgen treatment increases muscle mass in HIV-infected men, the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Analysis of genome-wide microarray data obtained from skeletal muscle biopsies can be used to profile androgen-regulated pathways. Objective: To identify genes and pathway...

Glucocorticoids are a well recognized and common cause of muscle atrophy. Glucocorticoid-induced atrophy can be prevented by testosterone, but the molecular mechanisms underlying such protection have not been described. Thus, the global effects of testosterone on dexamethasone-induced changes in ge...

Shrub willow has strong adaptability, large biomass and short rotation period. Colorful willow barks have great ornamental and economic value. To study the color regulation mechanism, metabolomics and transcriptomics were used to analyze the purple, green and red barks. In the positive mode, a to...

Population based studies have established that androgen deficiency in males correlates with type 2 diabetes, visceral adiposity, and metabolic syndrome. Androgen therapy has been investigated as a possible treatment regime to combat these disorders. However, the molecular mechanism of androgen effec...

Gliotoxin is a secondary metabolite produced by Aspergillus fumigatus, known to play a significant role in immune regulation and virulence phenotypes. This study investigates how the deletion of gliotoxin biosynthesis remodels the metabolic state of A. fumigatus and subsequently af...

The present study aimed to delineate the central mechanisms by which androgens delay wound repair. Blocking the conversion of testosterone to 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) by 5alpha-reductase limits its ability to impair skin wound healing, suggesting that DHT is a more potent inhibitor of repair...

Steroid hormones regulate essential physiological processes and inadequate levels are associated with various pathological conditions. In testosterone-producing Leydig cells, steroidogenesis is strongly stimulated by LH via its receptor leading to increased cAMP production and expression of the ster...

Despite sharing much of their genomes, males and females are often highly dimorphic, reflecting at least in part the resolution of sexual conflict in response to sexually antagonistic selection. Sexual dimorphism arises owing to sex differences in gene expression, and steroid hormones are often invo...
