Inflammation is a characteristic marker in numerous lung disorders. Several immune cells,
such as macrophages, dendritic cells, eosinophils, as well as T and B lymphocytes …

Rapid (nongenomic) membrane-initiated androgen actions have been described in nuclear
androgen receptor–null cells. Four distinct proteins have been proposed as membrane …

The sex steroid hormones (SSHs) play several roles in regulation of various processes in
the cardiovascular, immune, muscular and neural systems. SSHs affect prenatal and …

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) …

Rapid, androgen actions initiated at the cell surface have been reported in a variety of
vertebrate cells, including several macrophage and prostate cancer cell lines that lack the …

Androgens act through the nuclear androgen receptor (AR) to regulate gonad differentiation
and development. In mice, AR is necessary for spermatogenesis, testis development, and …

Testosterone (T) is the predominant endogenous androgen in the bloodstream. At the
vascular level, T presents genomic and non-genomic effects, and both effects may overlap …

Multiple lines of evidence indicate that androgens, such as testosterone, modulate the
mesocorticolimbic system and executive function. This review integrates neuroanatomical …

Steroids hormones possess two distinct actions, a delayed genomic effect and a rapid non-
genomic effect. Rapid steroid-triggered signaling is mediated by specific receptors localized …

Melanoma incidence and mortality rates are historically higher for men than women.
Although emerging studies have highlighted tumorigenic roles for the male sex hormone …
