まとめ
テストステロンの低さで特徴づけられる 機能性下性器症は 老齢男性や特定の健康状態の男性に多く見られます このレビューは,選択性エストロゲン受容体調節剤とアロマターゼ阻害剤の治療に関する情報を更新しています.
科学分野:
- 内分泌学
- 男性 の 健康
- 生殖医学
背景:
- 機能性下性腺症は,低テストステロンと下性腺症の症状で,主性下垂体・下垂体・子宮軸の機能障害とは無関係です.
- 一般的に中年および高齢の男性に発症し (遅発性低子腺症) 肥満,2型糖尿病,オピオイド使用,ステロイド乱用に関連しています.
- 生活習慣の変更は,機能性性低子腺症の主要な管理戦略です.
研究 の 目的:
- 男性の機能性下性腺症の治療のために選択性エストロゲン受容体調節剤 (SERM) とアロマターゼ阻害剤 (AIs) の使用に関する現在の情報をレビューし,更新する.
- 男性機能性下性器症,特に不妊症の若い男性におけるSERMとAIに関する限られた文献を扱うこと.
主な方法:
- 既存の研究と臨床データの文献レビュー
- 機能性下性腺症の文脈におけるSERMとAIの有効性と安全性の分析
- テストステロンの治療は特に生殖能力の保全のために禁忌である男性の治療選択肢に焦点を当てます.
主要な成果:
- テストステロン置換療法は一般的な治療法ですが,生育を希望する男性では禁忌です.
- SERMとAIは,機能性下性腺症の潜在的な代替手段であり,特に生殖能力が懸念される場合です.
- 男性の機能性低子腺症におけるSERMとAIに関する既存の証拠は限られている.
結論:
- 機能性下性腺症の治療には,患者の年齢と生殖能力の目標を考慮して,個別のアプローチが必要です.
- SERMとAIは,機能性低子腺症の特定の患者集団のための新たな治療選択肢を表しています.
- 男性の機能性下性腺症におけるSERMとAIの使用に関する決定的なガイドラインを確立するために,さらなる研究が不可欠です.

Infertility in Males
331
Male infertility affects millions of couples worldwide, arising from various factors that impact different stages of the reproductive process. An endocrine imbalance resulting from conditions like hypogonadism, Klinefelter syndrome, or pituitary disorders can disrupt hormone levels and reduce sperm production. Testicular defects, such as tumors, cryptorchidism, atrophic testes, abnormal sperm morphology, and low sperm count or motility, may arise due to genetic factors, structural...

Testosterone: Functions and Regulation
1.0K
The intricate hormonal interplay essential for male reproductive health begins with the release of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) by the hypothalamus. This hormone prompts the pituitary gland to secrete follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). LH targets the Leydig cells in the testes, stimulating them to produce and release testosterone. In concert with testosterone, FSH acts on the Sertoli cells within the seminiferous tubules to facilitate the release of...

Menopause
248
Menopause, a natural biological process marking the end of a woman's fertility, typically occurs between the fifth and sixth decade of life. This phase is characterized by the exhaustion of the ovarian follicle pool, leading to less responsive ovaries despite the high levels of Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing Hormone (LH). The consequential decrease in estrogen production results in symptoms like hot flashes, heavy sweating, headaches, hair loss, muscle pains, vaginal...

Disorders of the Male Reproductive System
570
Men's health issues are increasingly recognized as significant, with several conditions posing common threats. Among these, testicular cancer is especially prevalent in younger men, particularly those aged 20 to 35 years. The disease often manifests as a painless mass in the testicles, sometimes accompanied by a sensation of heaviness or a dull ache.

Transducer Mechanism: Nuclear Receptors
1.6K
Nuclear receptors, or NRs, are unique transcription factors that regulate gene transcription and affect the cellular pathways involved in reproduction, development, or metabolism. Their ability to be stimulated by small lipophilic ligands and control vital cellular processes makes them ideal drug targets. Nearly 10-15% of currently prescribed drugs target these receptors.
About 48 different soluble family members of nuclear receptors are identified that can be divided into two main classes:

Treatment for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors
247
Phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) inhibitors are potent enzymes that function to hydrolyze cyclic nucleotides to their corresponding 5' monophosphates. Their unique biochemical properties have been applied in treating Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH).
Among the PDE5 inhibitors, sildenafil (Revatio) stands out as a competitive and selective inhibitor. It operates by elevating cellular levels of cGMP and augmenting signaling through the cGMP-PKG pathway, promoting vasodilation. Upon oral...
