To study the serum levels of 19-hydroxyandrostenedione (19-OH-A), known as an obligatory intermediate of estrogen biosynthesis and considered to be one of the hypertensinogens, a method using GC-MS with application of synthesized [7,7-d2]androstenedione (A), [7,7-d2] 19-OH-A and [9,11-d2]estrone(E1) as internal
In order to evaluate the hypertensinogenic action of 19-hydroxyandrostenedione (19-OH-AD), which has been reported to be an amplifier of mineralocorticoid, the changes in several humoral factors were observed in 19-OH-AD treated rats as compared to those in DOCA hypertensive rats.
The steroid, 19-hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3, 17-dione (19-hydroxyandrostene-dione, 19-OH-A-dione) has been known to enhance the mineralocorticoid action of aldosterone. To investigate the age-related change in the plasma 19-OH-A-dione concentration, plasma 19-OH-A-dione, androst-4-ene-3, 17-dione (A-dione), aldosterone and cortisol of 38 non-hypertensive healthy subjects (18
We have reported that 19-hydroxyandrostenedione (19-OH-A-dione) functions as an amplifier of the sodium-retaining and hypertensive action of aldosterone. We therefore measured 19-hydroxyandrostenedione in hypertensive patients. We studied 53 normal male control subjects and 63 male patients with essential hypertension (48

Ovaries from 18-21-day-old foetal as well as from 2-10-day-old infantile rats were cultured in vitro in the presence of [3H]19-hydroxyandrostenedione and in the presence or absence of LH, FSH or (Bu)2 cAMP, and oestrone and oestradiol formed were determined by
