Book ChapterDOI

Sex Hormones and Lung Inflammation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the most recent advances in the functional roles and associated signaling pathways of inflammatory cellular responses in asthma, COPD, pulmonary fibrosis (PF), lung cancer (LC), and newly occurring COVID-19 disease are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Testosterone induces hyporesponsiveness by interfering with IP3 receptors in guinea pig airway smooth muscle.

TL;DR: It is concluded that TES modifies ITPR1 function in airway smooth muscle, turning this tissue less reactive to contractile agonists that act through PLCβ-IP3 signaling cascade, which might be related to the low asthma prevalence in males from puberty to adulthood.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sex steroids effects on guinea pig airway smooth muscle tone and intracellular Ca 2+ basal levels

TL;DR: DHEA and TES diminish ASM tone and b[Ca2+]i by blocking L-VDCC and probably a constitutively active TRPC3, and by PGE2 synthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Androgen Effects on the Adrenergic System of the Vascular, Airway, and Cardiac Myocytes and Their Relevance in Pathological Processes.

TL;DR: Androgens play an essential role in the adrenergic system of vascular, airway, and cardiac myocytes, favoring either a state of health or disease, and the vascular system is warmly affected.
Journal ArticleDOI

Testosterone augments β2 adrenergic receptor genomic transcription increasing salbutamol relaxation in airway smooth muscle

TL;DR: Chronic exposure to physiological TES concentration of the guinea pig ASM promotes β2-AR upregulation favoring β2 adrenergic responses and probably limiting the severity of the asthmatic exacerbations in teenage boys and men.
