Objectives To identify factors predicting maternal sex steroid hormone concentrations in early pregnancy.

The sex steroid hormone, estrogen, has been proposed to be protective against schizophrenia.

However, group IV rats maintained normal concentration of the sex steroid and ABP.

The most likely candidates are sex steroid hormones, they wrote.

Cancer treatments, especially sex steroid deprivation therapies, stimulate bone loss.

We measured sex steroid hormones and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis concentrations previously.

No modifications in the other pituitary hormones or in adrenal and sex steroid concentrations were noticed.

Old age and sex steroid deficiency are the two most critical factors for the development of osteoporosis.

This study aimed to investigate whether such gender differences are inherent or the result of sex steroid influences.

The early recognition of TS patients allows for adequate therapy for short stature and pubertal sex steroid substitution.

We hypothesized that sex steroid hormones mediate gender differences in AngII-induced AAA through regulation of the renin-angiotensin system.

Uterine endometrium depends on extrinsic sex steroid input and hence likely has mechanisms that enable adaptation to hormonal variation.

Conclusions: This study is the largest to date investigating AR sequence variants, sex steroid levels, and prostate cancer risk.

GH or sex steroid treatment increases IGFBP-3, but little is known regarding the effects of these hormones on other IGFBPs.

In contrast to estradiol, phytoestrogens bind only weakly to sex steroid-binding globulin; they also do not bind to corticosteroid-binding globulin.

The effect of sex steroid hormones on regucalcin expression in breast and prostate cancer cells was determined by real-time PCR.
