Fetal bile acid levels in pregnancies complicated by maternal intrahepatic cholestasis.
Laatikainen TJ.
Cholic and chenodeoxycholic acids were determined in 42 cord plasma samples after pregnancies complicated by maternal intrahepatic cholestasis and in 20 cord plasma samples after uncomplicated pregnancies with a gas-chromatographic method. The mean total amount of these bile acids was 1.8 mug per milliliter after uncomplicated pregnancies as compared to 5.6 mug per milliliter (P less than 0.001) in the cholestasis group. These bile acids were also determined in six maternal plasma samples where, as compared to the cord plasma of their babies, higher levels were found in every case. These results show that in addition to changes in the maternal circulation, maternal cholestasis elevates bile acid levels in fetal circulation. A more frequent occurrence of signs of fetal distress during pregnancy or labor was found in those cholestasis cases where cord plasma bile acid levels were high. The relationship of fetal bile acid levels to fetal steroid hormone metabolism was studied by correlating total bile acid levels with the concentrations of a number of steroid sulfates in cord plasma. An interesting finding was a negative correlation between fetal bile acid levels and concentrations of 16-oxygenated steroid sulfates, which are important estriol precursors produced by the fetus. These observations led to the conclusion that bile acids or other substances which are retained in maternal circulation as a result of cholestasis may, after transplacental passage, cause some kind of distress to the fetus.

Effects of cancer chemotherapeutic agents on endocrine organs and serum levels of estrogens, progesterone, prolactin, and luteinizing hormone.
Kuo EY, Esber HJ, Taylor DJ, Bogden AE.
The effects of the following cancer chemotherapeutic agents on serum hormonal levels, estrous cycles, and endocrine organs were studied in mature, normal Sprague-Dawley rats by radioimmunoassay, vaginal smear examination, and organ weight end point: estradiol mustard (NSC 112259), testosterone mustard (NSC 112260), phenoestrin (NSC 104469), methotrexate (NSC 740), 5-fluorouracil (NSC 19893), vinblastine (NSC 49842), vincristine (NSC 67574), nitrogen mustard (NSC 762), and 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea (NSC 409962). Following 2 weeks of treatment, estradiol-17beta levels were markedly elevated by all compounds except testosterone mustard and nitrogen mustard, which caused a decrease. Estrone levels were elevated by methotrexate, 5-fluorouracil, vinblastine, vincristine, nitrogen mustard, and 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea, but were lowered by estradiol mustard. Progesterone levels were elevated only by estradiol mustard and testosterone mustard and were not affected by other compounds. Prolactin surge during proestrus was suppressed by phenesterin and methotrexate. Luteinizing hormone levels were lowered by methotrexate and nitrogen mustard. Estrous cycles of rats treated with estradiol mustard were arrested at proestrus, and the uterine and pituitary weights of these rats markedly increased. Uterine weight loss was significant following treatment with testosterone mustard, 5-fluorouracil, and nitrogen mustard. Thyroid weight was reduced by all compounds except methotrexate and vinblastine. Significant increases in pituitary weights occurred following treatment with all compounds except 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea. The effects on ovarian and adrenal weights were minimal although significant by some compounds. Thus, in addition to their direct antitumor effects, these agents also produced changes in endocrine system which may be synergistic or antagonistic to the chemotherapy of endocrine-responsive neoplasms.

Indices of gonadal function in the human male. I. Plasma levels of unconjugated steroids and gonadotrophins under normal and pathological conditions.
Purvis K, Brenner PF, Landgren BM, Cekan Z, DICZFALUSY E.
A radioimmunoassay technique for the simultaneous measurement of eight unconjugated steroids (progesterone, pregnenolone, dehydroepiandrosterone, androstenedione, testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, oestrone and oestradiol) in the peripheral plasma of human males is described. Determinations of these steroids and of immunoreactive FSH and LH were carried out on the plasma of twenty-one normal individuals and the levels were compared to those of eleven and ten males exhibiting oligospermia and azoospermia, respectively. Mean values and tolerance limits for each hormone, based on a lognormal distribution of individual values, are presented for all groups. Oligospermia was associated with a significant reduction in plasma dihydrotestosterone and testosterone levels. Azoospermic subjects also exhibited decreased dihydrotestosterone levels but a normal range of testosterone concentrations. Mean peripheral plasma levels of FSH were significantly elevated in both pathological groups and this was paralleled in the azoospermic men by increased concentrations of plasma LH.

We examined the molecular progression of ectopic bone development upon application of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP2), using a commercial collagen type I carrier, in the hind quarter muscles of mice. We performed a gene expression study using mRNA in situ hybridisation to compare embryonic cartilage and bone formation with BMP2-induced ectopic bone formation. As bone growth can be induced postnatally or in adult animals, we examined the expression of molecules regulating embryonic bone development. We found that the mRNAs of the same molecules, such as Indian hedgehog (IHH), parathyroid hormone (PTH)/PTH-related peptide receptor (PPR) and BMPs, that regulate embryonic cartilage and bone development, are expressed during BMP-induced ectopic bone formation, suggesting parallels in the mechanisms controlling these processes. Our studies support by molecular means the previous findings in rats that BMP2-induced ectopic bone formation in mice undergoes bone development involving both modes, endochondral and intramembranous ossification, simultaneously at different sites of the implant.

Concentration of unconjugated adrenogenic hormones and their precursors in normal and polycystic ovaries.
Gyory G, Kiss C, Feher T, Poteczin E.
Dehydroepiandrosterone, androstenedione, testosterone, pregnenolone and progesterone concentration was determined by our sensitive gas-liquid chromatographic method in ovarian tissues obtained from surgery of patients without hirsutism and with Stein-Leventhal syndrome. The steroids, except testosterone, were detectable in all ovaries studied. Dehydroepiandrosterone and androstenedione, regarded as preandrogens, were present in an increased amount in almost all patients with polycycstic ovaries. Gas chromatographic evidence was obtained for the presence of testosterone in two of the cases. The delta4/3betaOH ratio reflecting 3beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity was decreased only in same patients with the Stein-Leventhal syndrome suggesting that the impaired function of this enzyme is not an obligatory feature of polycystic ovaries. Concentration of pregnenolone and progesterone measured in a part of cases varied in a great range although the determination was caried out before luteal phase. Simultaneous determination of hormones in both ovarian tissues revealed an active and an inactive period of the gland in the given time, since a great difference of hormone concentration in bilateral ovarian tissues were observed. A comparison of hormone content in ovaries and the urinary excretion of metabolites showed poor correlation between the two parameters of hormone production.

Beautiful, dense hair is a dream for many people.
Hair growth is a sophisticated biological process, which has not yet been understood.
A multitude of therapeutic measures, including drugs, surgery, and suppelements have been developed.
However, due to the diversity of the problems underlying hair loss, there is no single solution that
can address all hair loss cases. Another problem is that most of chemical drugs and hair transplantation
surgeries are not free from varying degrees of undesirable side effects on health.
Hair Million is an alternative solution to cope with hair loss problems.
Anecdotally, it shows prositive results and improvement especially for age-related hair thinning and hair loss
for a large group of people who take it as suggested. Although personal experiences and anecdotal evidences
indicate that it works, we still do not understand the mechanisms of action as to how Hair Million works to
help stop hair loss, and promote hair growth. There has been no clinical trials nor placebo controlled statistical
analysis on the efficacy of Hair Million on hair loss and hair growth. R & D costs dearly, and no one would
afford to research complex herbal ingredients, which are often not patentable at all because they are
made by mother nature.
DHEA is a natural hormone, and it is produced in our body by the adrenal glands.
DHEA has been suggested to provide numerous potential benefits. DHEA (or dehydroepiandrosterone) is converted into androgens (male hormones)
or estrogens (female hormones) in the cells.
