Introduction Accurate measurement of steroids in plasma is an important requirement in clinical research laboratories. Triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (MS/MS) is now a standard platform in this area for detection due to speed and sensitivity, however this group of compounds contains many structural isomers that cannot be differentiated by MS/MS alone. This may lead to inaccurate analysis by over estimation of concentration levels. Separation prior to MS/MS detection must be achieved, typically by liquid chromatography (LC). An analytical method utilizing LC-MS/MS combined with solid phase extraction of plasma samples is used to remove many matrix interferences,

  • Dehydroepiandrosterone: a Potential Therapeutic Agent in the Treatment
    Bentley et al. Burns & Trauma (2019) 7:26 https://doi.org/10.1186/s41038-019-0158-z REVIEW Open Access Dehydroepiandrosterone: a potential therapeutic agent in the treatment and rehabilitation of the traumatically injured patient Conor Bentley1,2,3* , Jon Hazeldine1,3, Carolyn Greig2,4, Janet Lord1,3,4 and Mark Foster1,5 Abstract Severe injuries are the major cause of death in those aged under 40, mainly due to road traffic collisions. Endocrine, metabolic and immune pathways respond to limit the tissue damage sustained and initiate wound healing, repair and regeneration mechanisms. However, depending on age and sex, the response to injury and patient prognosis differ significantly. Glucocorticoids are catabolic and immunosuppressive and are produced as part of the stress response to injury leading to an intra-adrenal shift in steroid biosynthesis at the expense of the anabolic and immune enhancing steroid hormone dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and its sulphated metabolite dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEAS). The balance of these steroids after injury appears to influence outcomes in injured humans, with high cortisol: DHEAS ratio associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Animal models of trauma, sepsis, wound healing, neuroprotection and burns have all shown a reduction in pro- inflammatory cytokines, improved survival and increased resistance to pathological challenges with DHEA supplementation. Human supplementation studies, which have focused on post-menopausal females, older adults, or adrenal insufficiency have shown that restoring the cortisol: DHEAS ratio improves wound healing, mood, bone remodelling and psychological well-being. Currently, there are no DHEA or DHEAS supplementation studies in trauma patients, but we review here the evidence for this potential therapeutic agent in the treatment and rehabilitation of the severely injured patient.

Almeida Professor Human Development and Family Studies Collins O. Airhihenbuwa Professor of Biobehavioral Health, Head, Department of Biobehavioral Health *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. iii ABSTRACT Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) is one of the most widely circulating hormones in the body, and adult men have higher DHEA-S levels compared to adult women. Due to its unique lifetime rhythm (i.e., levels rise at 6-8 yrs, peak at 20-30 yrs, decline until death) and purported protective role in the health effects of aging (e.g., cardiovascular disease, dementia), DHEA-S has been studied as an anti-aging hormone. The antiglucocorticoid properties of DHEA-S suggest that it may protect against the long-term health consequences of chronic, stress-induced cortisol release. Little is known about the role of DHEA-S in the biological stress response in humans, but a handful of studies suggest that DHEA-S levels increase following intense physical stressors.

  • Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate and Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate/Cortisol Ratio in Cirrhotic Patients with Septic Shock: Anothe
    Tsai et al. Critical Care (2017) 21:214 DOI 10.1186/s13054-017-1768-0 RESEARCH Open Access Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate/cortisol ratio in cirrhotic patients with septic shock: another sign of hepatoadrenal syndrome? Ming-Hung Tsai1†, Hui-Chun Huang2,3,4†, Yun-Shing Peng5,6, Yung-Chang Chen6,7, Ya-Chung Tian6,7, Chih-Wei Yang6,7, Jau-Min Lien1, Ji-Tseng Fang6,7, Cheng-Shyong Wu6,8, Sen-Yung Hsieh1 and Fa-Yauh Lee2,3* Abstract Background: Cirrhotic patients are susceptible to sepsis and critical illness-related corticosteroid insufficiency (CIRCI). Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) is a corticotropin-dependent adrenal androgen, which has immunostimulating and antiglucocorticoid effects. Considering the synchronized synthesis of cortisol and DHEAS and their opposing effects to each other, investigators have proposed measuring these two hormones as a ratio. Severe sepsis has been associated with low DHEAS, especially relative to high cortisol. Despite growing interest in the role of adrenal androgen replacement in critical illness, there have been no data about DHEAS and the DHEAS/cortisol ratio in patients with liver cirrhosis. We studied whether low concentrations of DHEAS and decreased DHEAS/cortisol ratio are associated with poor outcome in patients with liver cirrhosis and septic shock. Methods: We recruited 46 cirrhotic patients with septic shock, and 46 noncirrhotic counterparts matched by age and sex. We evaluated adrenal function using the short corticotropin stimulation test and analyzed the relation between DHEAS and cortisol. Results: While the nonsurvivors in the cirrhotic group had significantly lower baseline DHEAS, lower baseline DHEAS/cortisol ratio, and reduced increments of both DHEAS and cortisol upon corticotropin stimulation, the survivors had lower baseline cortisol.

  • DASON COVID-19 Weekly Treatment Literature Update 7/31/2020 NIH
    DASON COVID-19 Weekly Treatment Literature Update 7/31/2020 Prepared by: Angelina Davis, PharmD, MS, April Dyer, PharmD, MBA, MSCR, Elizabeth Dodds Ashley, PharmD, MHS, Melissa Johnson, PharmD, MHS, S. Shaefer Spires, MD, Travis Jones, PharmD The following summarizes key literature pertaining to treatment of COVID-19 during the past week. *Note: some of the data discussed below may be in pre-print form that has not yet been peer-reviewed. We have noted some discrepancies in some of this data, and final printed versions may ultimately differ from what is shown here. We will update as soon as possible; caution is advised when interpreting this literature. NIH Guideline Updates On Friday, July 24th and Thursday June 30th, the NIH updated treatment guidelines. The full guideline document can be found at this link: https://files.covid19treatmentguidelines.nih.gov/guidelines/covid19treatmentguidelines.pdf These are also reflected in our summary table of the NIH treatment guidelines that can be found here: https://dason.medicine.duke.edu/sites/dason.medicine.duke.edu/files/nih_covid- 19_treatment_guideline_updates_7-24-20.pdf The most recent change on July 30th included expanding the list of corticosteroids that can be used. Hydrocortisone, methylprednisolone, and prednisone are all considered alternatives when dexamethasone is in short supply. The July 24th modification was to clarify oxygen requirements for remdesivir patients and further refine considerations for situations in which remdesivir is in short supply. Patients are not separated into those who are on supplemental oxygen alone and those on high-flow oxygen, mechanical ventilation or ECMO. The updated guideline now reads: Recommendation for Prioritizing Limited Supplies of Remdesivir • Because remdesivir supplies are limited, the Panel recommends that remdesivir be prioritized for use in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 who require supplemental oxygen but who are not on high-flow oxygen, noninvasive ventilation, mechanical ventilation, or ECMO (BI).

  • Absoluteidq® Stero17 Kit
    Superior Confi dence in Steroid Hormone Analysis AbsoluteIDQ® Stero17 Kit KIT Ready-to-Use Comprehensive Coverage Best Fit to Physiological Range Superior Data Quality Steroid Hormone Profiling by Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures. Key Benefi ts The Most Accurate Steroid Hormone Analysis Steroid hormones are a group of metabolites that are derived from cholesterol. They are produced primarily by adrenal glands, testes, and ovaries. Based on their receptor, steroid hormones are classifi ed into fi ve groups: glucocorticoids, mineralocorticoids, progestogens, androgens, and estrogens. Steroid hormones exert multiple biological functions, including regulation of glucose levels, cell growth, and proliferation. The trend in steroid analysis is moving from measuring single or small sets of steroid hormones with immunoassays towards broader, mass spectrometry-based quantifi cation of steroid hormones (Jeanneret et al., J Chromatogr A 2016). The AbsoluteIDQ® Stero17 Kit is designed to help researchers to unravel the complexities of steroid hormone effects. It provides highly repro- ducible data on 17 functionally important steroid hormones in a single assay.
