Testosterone, 5 alpha-androstane-17 beta-ol-3-one (DHT) and 5 alpha-androstane-3 alpha,17 beta-diol (Adiol) concentrations were measured in postmortem tissues (pubic skin, scrotal skin, thigh skin, and striated muscle) from 24 males, aged 20-82 yr. Androgen concentrations were highest in scrotal skin, followed

Concentrations of testosterone, progesterone, Delta4-androstenedione, dihydrotestosterone, 11-ketotestosterone, estrone, estradiol-17beta, 5alpha-androstane, 3alpha, 17beta-diol, and 17alpha-hydroxy, 20beta-dihydroprogesterone were determined by radioimmunoassays in the blood plasma and testicular homogenates of Scyliorhinus canicula. Samples were collected almost every month for 27 months. The weights

The abuse of anabolic-androgenic steroids (AS) is a growing problem; however, the effects and mechanisms underlying their addictive effects are not well understood. Research findings regarding androgen abuse in people and hedonic effects of androgens in laboratory rats are reviewed.

Certain androstane steroids (AS) modulate ionotropic receptors, as do the pregnane steroids. Whereas women produce significant amounts of neuroactive progesterone metabolites, the steroid neuromodulators in men originate mainly from the 3-oxo-4-ene C(19)-steroids, which are converted to their 3alpha- and 3beta-hydroxy-5alpha/5beta-reduced
