dehydroepiandrosterone and Cancer of the Uterus

dehydroepiandrosterone has been researched along with Cancer of the Uterus in 40 studies

Dehydroepiandrosterone: A major C19 steroid produced by the ADRENAL CORTEX. It is also produced in small quantities in the TESTIS and the OVARY. Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) can be converted to TESTOSTERONE; ANDROSTENEDIONE; ESTRADIOL; and ESTRONE. Most of DHEA is sulfated (DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE SULFATE) before secretion.
dehydroepiandrosterone : An androstanoid that is androst-5-ene substituted by a beta-hydroxy group at position 3 and an oxo group at position 17. It is a naturally occurring steroid hormone produced by the adrenal glands.

"Clinical and metabolic effects of depot-injections of estradiol valerianate-dehydroepiandrosterone enanthate at a 1:50 ratio (Gynodian-depot) in the treatment of severe clinical manifestations of the vegetoneurotic syndrome were evaluated in menopuasal patients after hysterectomy for uterine myoma."3.66Clinical and metabolic effects of Gynodian-depot in vegetoneurotic disorders following removal of uterine myoma in menopausal patients. ( Talina, IS; Uvarova, EV; Vikhliaeva, EM, 1983)
"The presence of uterine leiomyomas correlates with an increase in urinary concentrations of estrogens and androgens, and it appears to be caused by a decrease in patients' metabolism of steroids."1.32Endogenous urinary steroids in premenopausal women with uterine leiomyomas. ( Bai, SW; Chung, BC; Jung, BH, 2004)
"Estrone sulfate was more efficient as a substrate than dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, since the amount of product formed from estrone sulfate was approximately 3-fold greater than that formed from dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate."1.27In situ steroid sulfatase activity in human epithelial carcinoma cells of vaginal, ovarian, and endometrial origin.
