1 RESULTS: Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate correlated negatively with fasting insulin (r = 0.4, p < 0.05) and reached significance in those most obese. Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate insulin Homo sapiens
2 Although more atherogenic apolipoprotein profiles and higher fasting insulin concentrations were found with greater body weight, lipid-insulin interrelationships may reflect dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate interaction. Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate insulin Homo sapiens
3 Although more atherogenic apolipoprotein profiles and higher fasting insulin concentrations were found with greater body weight, lipid-insulin interrelationships may reflect dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate interaction. Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate insulin Homo sapiens
4 CONCLUSIONS: We hypothesize that dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate dampens the effect of insulin resistance, which in turn is reflected in apolipoprotein profiles in women with hirsutism/hyperandrogenism. Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate insulin Homo sapiens
