dehydroepiandrosterone and Kaposi Sarcoma

dehydroepiandrosterone has been researched along with Kaposi Sarcoma in 3 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.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Since most forms of Kaposi sarcoma are much more common in men than in women, the aim of this study was to examine serum concentrations of sex steroids in HIV positive men with and without Kaposi sarcoma."1.29Differences in androgens of HIV positive patients with and without Kaposi sarcoma. ( Christeff, N; Costagliola, D; Gharakhanian, S; Nunez, EA; Rozenbaum, W; Thobie, N; Winter, C; Wirbel, E, 1995)
