The androgen receptor is a key transcriptional factor for the proper sex development -- especially in males -- and the physiological balance of all the tissues that express this receptor. The androgen ...

Male hormones (androgens), as their name implies, have an important role in promoting the formation of male sexual characteristics (secondary sexual characteristics). In addition, androgens have ...

Men with nonmetastatic prostate cancer (PC) starting continuous ADT were enrolled in this matched cohort study. Physical function was assessed with the 6-minute walk test (6MWT), grip strength, and ...

Prostate specific antigen doubling time (PSA-DT) and velocity (PSA-V) provide independent prognostic information in androgen independent prostate cancer (AIPC) patients receiving chemotherapy No ...

The androgen clock is rewriting the science of aging, offering a precise way to measure hormone exposure and its profound effects on health, longevity, and biology. Study: The androgen clock is an ...

A poorly characterized protein, historically thought to be a chaperon or enzyme, may actually be a key player in prostate cancer. In a systematic CRISPR screen, scientists from Arc Institute, UCSF, ...

Testosterone is the main sex hormone for men. While it’s most known for its role in sexual health, testosterone also plays a vital role in maintaining muscle mass, strength, and bone density, in ...
