In the male androgens are essential for the development and maintenance of specific
reproductive tissues such as testis, prostate, epididymis, seminal vesicle and penis, as well …

It has been well established for decades that androgens, namely testosterone (T) plays an
important role in female reproductive physiology as the precursor for oestradiol (E 2) …

Androgen receptors are present in numerous tissues throughout the female body, and
knowledge of the specific actions of androgens at different sites is increasing, along with the …

Androgens and the androgen receptor (AR) are indispensable for expression of the male
phenotype. The two most important androgens are testosterone and 5α-dihydrotestosterone …

Androgens play an important role in metabolic homeostasis and reproductive health in both
men and women. Androgen signalling is dependent on androgen receptor activation, mostly …

Androgens, principally testosterone and 5α-dihydrotestosterone, play critical roles in the
development and growth of the male reproductive and nonreproductive systems. Their …

Androgens affect the growth and development of a wide variety of cell types in both males
and females and produce their effects by binding to androgen receptors, which modulate the …

The pathways of androgen biosynthesis in human beings have been studied for decades,
and the major pathways and enzymes responsible for testosterone and dihydrotestosterone …

Androgens and estrogens are known to be critical regulators of mammalian physiology and
development. While these two classes of steroids share similar structures (in general …

We provide an in-depth review of the role of androgens in male maturation and
development, from the fetal stage through adolescence into emerging adulthood, and …
