A series of novel 1H- and 2H-indazole derivatives of the commercially available dehydroepiandrosterone acetate have been synthesized and tested for inhibition of human cytochrome 17alpha-hydroxylase-C(17,20)-lyase (CYP17), androgen receptor (AR) binding affinity, and cytotoxic potential against three prostate cancer (PC) cell

Twenty adult Sprague-Dawley outbred rats (10 male and 10 female) were fed a nonpurified diet without or containing dehydroepiandrosterone acetate (DHEA 6 g/kg diet) for 11 w. DHEA-treated animals weighed less than the controls after 6 wk and until the

Fragmentation of oocytes was induced in the ovary, via ovulation suppression, by administration of dehydroepiandrosterone acetate (DHA-Ac) to mature cycling rats. The maximal fragmentation ratio, 15.0 +/- 3.2%, was obtained by 10 mg/100 g b.wt/day for 7-day administration of DHA-Ac.

Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate significantly increased prostaglandin F2 alpha output by fragments of human secretory endometrium during the first and second 24-hour periods of incubation in Ham's F-10 medium containing 10% charcoal-treated calf bovine serum. The effects of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate were noted
M K McIntosh et al.
The Journal of nutrition, 118(8), 1011-1017 (1988-08-01)
The interaction of rat strain and glucocorticoid status on the dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)-mediated decrease in response to starvation-refeeding was studied. DHEA treatment of intact starved-refed Sprague-Dawley rats resulted in significantly lower hepatic lipid and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity than observed in non-DHEA-treated
