Analgesic use and sex steroid hormone concentrations in postmenopausal women.
Prior epidemiologic studies suggest that regular use of analgesics may decrease risk of breast and ovarian cancer. We explored possible hormone-mediated mechanisms for these associations by examining the relationship between use of aspirin, nonaspirin nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), and acetaminophen and sex steroid hormone concentrations among 740 postmenopausal women in the Nurs...
متن کاملFlaxseed consumption influences endogenous hormone concentrations in postmenopausal women.
Lignans, similar in structure to endogenous sex steroid hormones, may act in vivo to alter hormone metabolism and subsequent cancer risk. The objective of this study was to examine effects of dietary intake of a lignan-rich plant food (flaxseed) on serum concentrations of endogenous hormones and binding proteins (estrone, estrone sulfate, 17 beta-estradiol, sex hormone-binding globulin, progest...
متن کاملCirculating steroid hormone levels and risk of breast cancer for postmenopausal women.
Epidemiologic studies have consistently reported that endogenous steroid hormone levels are associated with postmenopausal breast cancer risk, but little is known on the associations by tumor grade, hormone receptor status, or age at diagnosis. We performed a case-cohort study of naturally postmenopausal women within the Melbourne Collaborative Cohort Study that included a random sample of 857 ...
متن کاملPaternity, parental behavior and circulating steroid hormone concentrations in nest-tending male bluegill.
Like many teleost fishes, bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus) are characterized by sole male parental care of offspring. In addition, bluegill parental males experience cuckoldry by specialized parasitic male morphs. This cuckoldry has previously been shown to influence the expression of parental care behavior. To better understand some of the proximate mechanisms mediating parental behavior, we exa...
متن کاملRecreational physical activity and steroid hormone levels in postmenopausal women.
Recreational physical activity has been both positively and inversely associated with cancer risk for postmenopausal women, acting presumably through hormonal mechanisms. Relatively little is known about the effects of exercise on postmenopausal steroid hormone levels. The authors evaluated the association between recreational activity and plasma steroid hormones among 623 US healthy, postmenop...
