Trypanosoma cruzi: Orchiectomy and dehydroepiandrosterone therapy in infected rats
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2008)
The ability of gonadal hormones to influence and induce diverse immunological functions during the course of a number of parasitic infections has been extensively studied in the latest decades. Dehydroepiandrosterone and ...
DHEA and testosterone therapies in Trypanosoma cruzi-infected rats are associated with thymic changes
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2010)
The ability of the gonadal hormones to influence diverse immunological functions during the course of several infections has been extensively studied in the latest decades. Testosterone has a suppressive effect on immune ...

(Oxford University Press, 2017-10)
Tuberculosis (TB) caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a health problem worldwide. Patients with pulmonary TB show a neuro-immune-endocrine imbalance characterized by an impaired cellular immunity together with increased ...
Metformin prevents the increase of nitric oxide and lipid peroxidation induced by dehydroepiandrosterone in early pregnant mice
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2013-09)
The aim of this work was to study the effects of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and metformin (M) on nitric oxide (NO) system and oxidative stress in embryo implantation sites of early pregnant mice. The biguanide M is used ...
Dehydroepiandrosterone protects against oxidative stress-induced endothelial dysfunction in ovariectomized rats
