dehydroepiandrosterone and Synovitis

dehydroepiandrosterone has been researched along with Synovitis 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.

Synovitis: Inflammation of the SYNOVIAL MEMBRANE.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The conversion of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) in target macrophages leads to an increase of downstream effector hormones (including estrogens), which may be an important factor for local immunomodulation at least in RA synovitis."4.82Synovial fluid estrogens in rheumatoid arthritis. ( Capellino, S; Cutolo, M; Montagna, P; Seriolo, B; Straub, RH; Sulli, A; Villaggio, B, 2004)
