1 Altered association of interleukin-6 with sex steroids in lipid metabolism disorder in men with prostate cancer receiving androgen deprivation therapy. Steroids interleukin 6 Homo sapiens
2 BACKGROUND: Interleukin-6 produced in adipose tissue plays a role in lipid metabolism, and also interacts with sex steroids. Steroids interleukin 6 Homo sapiens
3 This study was performed to elucidate the mechanism of lipid metabolism disorder during androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in terms of the association of interleukin-6 with sex steroids. Steroids interleukin 6 Homo sapiens
4 CONCLUSIONS: Posttreatment interleukin-6 levels had a strong positive correlation with total-testosterone, androstenedione, and estradiol levels, suggesting that a regulation loop may emerge between these sex steroids and interleukin-6 during ADT. Steroids interleukin 6 Homo sapiens
5 The altered association between interleukin-6 and sex steroids is possibly involved in ADT-related lipid metabolism disorder with unchanged interleukin-6 levels despite increased %body fat. Steroids interleukin 6 Homo sapiens
6 The altered association between interleukin-6 and sex steroids is possibly involved in ADT-related lipid metabolism disorder with unchanged interleukin-6 levels despite increased %body fat. Steroids interleukin 6 Homo sapiens
