Project description:With increasing age and the additional impact from the bowel cancer and the chemotherapy and/ or radiotherapy it has been described that testosterone (a male hormone produced naturally in the body) levels are reduced. Testosterone has an impact on numerous body functions including the muscle mass and quality. Previous studies have identified that muscle mass is reduced as a result of ageing but also because of the deleterious effect of cancer and chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. There is growing evidence from published studies that patients with better muscle mass and quality, do better after surgery. Mr Jenkins and his team are therefore looking at ways, the investigators can try and prevent or reduce this muscle loss and therefore improve patient outcomes.
The aim of this study is to assess whether using testosterone replacement therapy in the form of a topically applied gel daily for a total of 12 weeks, is feasible and acceptable by the patients who are diagnosed with colorectal cancer and are waiting to undergo surgery. The investigators will also collect information related to the testosterone replacement therapy such as questionnaires on the quality of life, fatigue and muscle mass, and blood biomarker changes in the blood.

Project description:Androgenic modulation of the structural integrity and functional maintenance of the epididymis have been demonstrated. Androgen receptor is a typical receptor to modulate classical testosterone signaling pathway, while accumulated studies suggested number of membranous receptors or intermediated molecules also involved in testosterone pathway. In RNAseq analysis of castration mouse model, profile of testosterone responsive genes was identified. Comibining with our in-vitro studies, an novel testosterone action which incoperated with glutamine and glutamate transportation has been proposed in epididymal epithlium cells.

Project description:Despite sharing much of their genomes, males and females are often highly dimorphic, reflecting at least in part the resolution of sexual conflict in response to sexually antagonistic selection. Sexual dimorphism arises owing to sex differences in gene expression, and steroid hormones are often invoked as a proximate cause of sexual dimorphism. Experimental elevation of androgens can lead to masculinization of behavior, physiology, and gene expression, but knowledge of the role of hormones remains incomplete, including how the sexes differ in their gene expression in response to exposure to hormones. We addressed these questions in a bird species with a long history of behavioral endocrinological and ecological study, the dark-eyed junco (Junco hyemalis), using a species-specific microarray. Focusing on two brain regions involved in sexually dimorphic behavior and regulation of hormone secretion, we identified 1,639 genes that differed in expression by sex in the ventromedial telencephalon and 768 in hypothalamus. In response to experimentally elevated testosterone, females exhibited a more “male-like” expression pattern than control females; unexpectedly, male expression patterns became more “female-like” rather than hyper-masculinized when compared to control males. This sex difference in pattern arose both because testosterone altered regulation of different genes in each sex and because testosterone altered regulation of the same genes differentially, i.e., up in one sex, down in the other. Hormonally regulated gene expression is a key genetic and physiological mechanism underlying sexual dimorphism, and further study should help to explain how it relates to the resolution of sexual conflict. Hypothalamus: 24 samples were analyzed, all were biological (not technical) replicates. 6 from males treated with testosterone [MT], 6 from control males [MC], 6 from females treated with testosterone [FT], and 6 from control females [FC]. All hybridizations were paired, and all treatment groups were compared, but no sample was analyzed more than once.

Project description:Testosterone deficiency afflicts approximately 30% of men aged from 40-89 years. It is associated with type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease. However, the causality of the relationship between low testosterone and metabolic diseases is unclear. We have analysed plasma samples from thirty healthy male volunteers (19-32 years of age) with pharmacologically-induced testosterone deficiency. Blood samples were collected under three conditions: normal testosterone (baseline), ‘zero’ testosterone and ‘restored’ testosterone. As a proof-of-concept, a sample pooling approach was used to obtain one pool per condition, with each pool consisting of 30 individual samples. The proteomic profiles identified significant functional differences, related to the innate immune system, the regulation of insuline-like growth factors, collagen degradation, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis process, among others.

Project description:Human subjects were randomized for treatment with a GnRH-analogue, Goserelin, which suppresses endogenous testosterone or placebo for 12 weeks. Strength training was performed during the last 8 weeks. The suppression of testosterone resulted in an attenuation of the normal muscle adaptation to strength training (increased muscle mass and strength). To identify molecular signals involved in the response to testosterone levels, biopsies were obtained 4 hours after the last training session and gene expression compared with Affymetrix 3' microarrays. This timepoint should capture goserelin effect on both constitutive expression, training induced changes as well as acute exercise induced (4 hours) differences in mRNA levels.

Project description:Purpose: Obesity and dyslipidemia are associated with increased risk of renal disease.Testosterone deficiency aggravated high-fat diet-induced obesity and hypercholeterolemia. However,whether testosterone deficiency or testosterone deficiency-induced dyslipidemia aggravate the progression of renal disease is not clear. To gain insight into the role of testosterone in modulating renal lipid metabolism, we profiled renal gene expression by RNA-Seq in HFC-fed intact male pigs (IM), castrated male pigs (CM), and castrated male pigs with testosterone replacement (CMT). Methods: Sexually mature male miniature pigs were either surgical castrated or sham-operated, and castrated with testosterone replacement. We administrated to pigs a high-fat and high-cholesterol (HFC) diet for twelve weeks. RNA-Seq was employed to profile renal gene expression in pigs with different testosterone levels. Conclusions: This study demonstrated that testosterone deficiency aggravated renal lipid accumulation in pigs fed an HFC diet and that these effects could be reversed by testosterone replacement therapy. Impaired metabolic processes, bile acid secretion,estrogen signaling pathway and enhanced triglyceride synthesis may contribute to the increased renal lipid accumulation induced by testosterone deficiency and an HFC diet.
