Abstract
Theophylline is a drug commonly used to treat asthma due to its anti-inflammatory and bronchodilatory properties. Testosterone (TES) has been suggested to reduce the severity of asthma symptoms. This condition affects boys more than girls in childhood, and this ratio reverses at puberty. We reported that guinea pig tracheal tissue chronic exposure to TES increases the expression of β2-adrenoreceptors and enhances salbutamol-induced K+ currents (IK+). Herein, we investigated whether the upregulation of K+ channels can enhance the relaxation response to methylxanthines, including theophylline. Chronic incubation of guinea pig tracheas with TES (40 nM, 48 h) enhanced the relaxation induced by caffeine, isobutylmethylxanthine, and theophylline, an effect that was abolished by tetraethylammonium. In tracheal myocytes, chronic incubation with TES increased theophylline-induced IK+; flutamide reversed this effect. The increase in IK+ was blocked by 4-aminopyridine by ~82%, whereas iberiotoxin reduced IK+ by ~17%. Immunofluorescence studies showed that chronic TES exposure increased the expression of KV1.2 and KV1.5 in airway smooth muscle (ASM). In conclusion, chronic exposure to TES in guinea pig ASM promotes upregulation of KV1.2 and KV1.5 and enhances theophylline relaxation response. Therefore, gender should be considered when prescribing methylxanthines, as teenage boys and males are likely to respond better than females.

Int J Endocrinol 2020; 2020:8849641.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Androgen signaling comprises nongenomic and genomic pathways. Nongenomic actions are not related to the binding of the androgen receptor (AR) and occur rapidly. The genomic effects implicate the binding to a cytosolic AR, leading to protein synthesis. Both events are independent of each other. Genomic effects have been associated with different pathologies such as vascular ischemia, hypertension, asthma, and cardiovascular diseases. Catecholamines play a crucial role in regulating vascular smooth muscle (VSM), airway smooth muscle (ASM), and cardiac muscle (CM) function and tone. OBJECTIVE The aim of this review is an updated analysis of the role of androgens in the adrenergic system of vascular, airway, and cardiac myocytes. Body. Testosterone (T) favors vasoconstriction, and its concentration fluctuation during life stages can affect the vascular tone and might contribute to the development of hypertension. In the VSM, T increases α1-adrenergic receptors (α 1-ARs) and decreases adenylyl cyclase expression, favoring high blood pressure and hypertension. Androgens have also been associated with asthma. During puberty, girls are more susceptible to present asthma symptoms than boys because of the increment in the plasmatic concentrations of T in young men. In the ASM, β 2-ARs are responsible for the bronchodilator effect, and T augments the expression of β 2-ARs evoking an increase in the relaxing response to salbutamol. The levels of T are also associated with an increment in atherosclerosis and cardiovascular risk. In the CM, activation of α 1A-ARs and β 2-ARs increases the ionotropic activity, leading to the development of contraction, and T upregulates the expression of both receptors and improves the myocardial performance. CONCLUSIONS Androgens play an essential role in the adrenergic system of vascular, airway, and cardiac myocytes, favoring either a state of health or disease. While the use of androgens as a therapeutic tool for treating asthma symptoms or heart disease is proposed, the vascular system is warmly affected.

Abstract
Early declines in gonadotropin production, despite elevated serum estradiol, among some individuals with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) suggests amplified systemic aromatization occurs post-injury. Our previous work identifies estradiol (E2) as a potent mortality marker. Androstenedione (A), a metabolic precursor to E2, estrone (E1), and testosterone (T), is a steroid hormone substrate for aromatization that has not been explored previously as a biomarker in TBI. Here, we evaluated serum A, E1, T, and E2 values for 82 subjects with severe TBI. Daily hormone values were calculated, and E2:A and E1:T ratios were generated and then averaged for days 0-3 post-injury. After data inspection, mean E2:A values were categorized as above (high aromatization) and below (low aromatization) the 50th percentile for 30-day mortality assessment using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and a multivariable Cox proportional hazard model adjusting for age, and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) to predict 30-day mortality status. Daily serum T, E1, and E2 were graphed by E2:A category. Serum E1 and E2 significantly differed over time (p < 0.05); the high aromatization group had elevated levels and a significantly lower probability of survival within the first 30 days (p = 0.0274). Multivariable Cox regression showed a significant E2:A*GCS interaction (p = 0.0129), wherein GCS predicted mortality only among those in the low aromatization group. E2:A may be a useful mortality biomarker representing enhanced aromatization after TBI. E2:A ratios may represent non-neurological organ dysfunction after TBI and may be useful in defining injury subgroups in which GCS has variable capacity to serve as an accurate early prognostic marker.

Abstract
Extensive pre-clinical studies suggest that sex steroids are neuroprotective in experimental traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, clinical trials involving sex hormone administration have not shown beneficial results, and our observational cohort studies show systemic estradiol (E2) production to be associated with adverse outcomes. Systemic E2 is produced via aromatization of testosterone (T) or reduction of estrone (E1). E1, also produced via aromatization of androstenedione (Andro) and is a marker of T-independent E2 production. We hypothesized that E1 would be (1) associated with TBI-related mortality, (2) the primary intermediate for E2 production, and (3) associated with adipose tissue-specific aromatase transcription. We assessed 100 subjects with severe TBI and 8 healthy controls. Serum levels were measured on days 0-3 post-TBI for key steroidogenic precursors (progesterone), aromatase pathway intermediates (E1, E2, T, Andro), and the adipose tissue-specific aromatase transcription factors cortisol, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and interleukin-6 (IL-6). E1 was elevated after TBI versus controls. High E1 was associated with higher progesterone, cortisol, and IL-6 (p < 0.05). Multivariable logistic regression demonstrated that those in the highest E1 tertile had increased odds for mortality (adjusted OR = 5.656, 95% CI = 1.102-29.045, p = 0.038). Structural equation models show that early serum E2 production is largely T independent, occurring predominantly through E1 metabolism. Acute serum E1 functions as a mortality marker for TBI through aromatase-dependent E1 production and T-independent E2 production. Further work should evaluate risk factors for high E2 production and how systemic E2 and its key intermediate E1 contribute to the extracerebral consequences of severe TBI.

Abstract
High affinity uptake of [3H](-)-norepinephrine (NE) was investigated in synaptosomes from rat cerebral cortex (Km = 360 +/- 30 nM) and hypothalamus (Km = 307 +/- 90 nM). Estrogens but not androgens, glucocorticoids or progestin interfered competitively with NE uptake. Ethinylestradiol was the most effective competitor tested, its Ki value being 200 nM in the cortex and 144 nM in the hypothalamus. Stereospecificity of the inhibitory effect of estradiol-17 beta with a preference for the 17 beta-hydroxy group was indicated by the ineffectiveness of estradiol-17 alpha and estrone as competitors. A-ring substitution of estradiol-17 beta or ethinylestradiol by hydroxyl groups in positions 2 and 4 (yielding catecholestrogens) or methyl substitution in positions 2 and 4 (yielding methylestrogens) significantly reduced the inhibitory potency of the estrogen. Methoxylation in positions 2, 4 or 11 beta completely abolished the competitive action of estradiol-17 beta or ethinylestradiol on NE uptake.

Abstract
Uptake of (+/-)-[3H]-noradrenaline, [14C]-bretylium and [125I]-o-iodobenzyltrimethylammonium iodide (RIBA) by rat heart was studied by the Langendorff technique. All three compounds showed significant uptake. 2 Corticosterone and 17-beta-oestradiol inhibited the uptake of all three compounds by rat heart, a finding consistent with extraneuronal uptake (uptake2). 3 [131I]-RIBA was injected intravenously into pigs and monkeys (M. speciosus). Myocardial samples taken from pigs killed 1 and 2 h after injection showed significant uptake. No significant uptake was found in myocardial samples of monkeys killed 10 min, 2 h and 24 h, respectively, after injection. 4 Four normal human volunteers received [125I]-RIBA intravenously and the image of the precordial area was followed by means of scintillation camera for the first 4 h after injection. In two of the subjects, the scintigrams were repeated at 22 and 23 h after injection, respectively. No evidence of myocardial uptake was observed. 5 These results suggest the possibility that man and at least one other primate species may differ from lower species with regard to uptake.

Abstract
The abundance of membrane cholesterol is an important determinant of the functional properties of biomembranes. To determine whether arterial smooth muscle acquires altered contractile properties in a high cholesterol environment, isolated canine coronary arteries were exposed to cholesterol in stable aqueous solution. Cholesterol, 10(-12) to 10(-10) M, was an efficacious vasoconstrictor, as maximum contractions equaled those obtained with 15 mM KCl. Antiadrenergic interventions, including chemical sympathectomy in vivo with 6-hydroxydopamine and alpha- and beta-adrenergic blockade with phentolamine and L-propranolol (both 10(-6 M), did not significantly attenuate the contractions. However, responses to cholesterol were abolished completely by (+/-)-verapamil (10(-6) M). Cholesterol in picomolar concentration enhanced the constrictor effects of CaCl2 and KCl, both in the presence and absence of alpha- and beta-adrenergic blockade. Increases in tone in response to graded elevations in the CaCl2 concentration (0-2 mM) were augmented up to 1.5-fold by 10(-12) M cholesterol (P less than 0.01). Results indicate that cholesterol sensitizes isolated coronary arteries to external Ca2+ by a nonadrenergic mechanism. The findings are consistent with the hypothesis that acquisition of membrane cholesterol may alter the contractile properties of coronary arterial smooth muscle, a phenomenon that could play a role in the pathophysiology of atherosclerotic heart disease.

Abstract
1 Treatment of postural hypotension due to chronic autonomic failure with fludrocortisone increased the pressor sensitivity to intravenous noradrenaline. Fludrocortisone increased the blood pressure in the standing but not the lying position. These effects of fludrocortisone may be the result of increased sensitivity of vascular receptors to noradrenaline. 2 The pressor action of angiotensin II, to which patients were supersensitive, may have involved the stimulation of alpha-adrenoceptors since it was partially antagonised by phentolamine. 3 Saralasin had a marked, paradoxical, pressor effect. This may have been mediated by vascular alpha-adrenoceptors because log dose-response curves of saralasin-induced increases in systolic pressure were shifted to the right in a parallel fashion after phentolamine. 4 Fludrocortisone treatment increased the pressor sensitivity to intravenous saralasin but not to angiotensin-II.

Abstract
Alterations in renal perfusion have been shown in a variety of liver diseases. We have examined the possibility that the syndrome is due to a renal vascular hypersensitivity to noradrenalin (NA). Isolated perfused kidneys and segments of rabbit femoral artery were used. Potentiation of the pressor effects of injected NA occurred in all (five artery and five kidney) preparations when jaundiced baboon plasma was perfused. These changes were significant (P less than 0.05) in nine out of the ten experiments. Controls to which normal baboon plasma was administered showed no such change. No correlation was found between the degree of NA potentiation and the plasma concentrations of bilirubin (total and conjugated), serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, blood urea nitrogen, serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, Na+ ions or K+ ions in the jaundiced plasma. Plasma renin levels were not significantly changed. When arteris were perfused with Krebtentiation of NA was found. Perfusion of sodium taurocholate or sodium deoxycholate (400 mug/ml) yielded no potentiation. Thus, the altered renal perfusion associated with jaundice may be attributed to a potentiated pressor response to NA which may be caused by an increased level of cholesterol carried on the beta-lipoprotein.

Abstract
1. The pressor responses to injected noradrenaline (NA) of 42 isolated perfused femoral arteries of the rabbit were studied. 2. Potentiation of the responses was found when hypercholesterolaemic plasma was perfused through the arteries. No change was found with normal plasma. 3. Potentiation of the responses was found when isolated beta-lipoprotein in Krebs solution was perfused. No change was found with similar amounts of bovine-albumen. 4. Pure cholesterol dissolved directly into normal plasma, and dissolved via propanol into Krebs solution or plasma caused no potentiation. Propanol alone in Krebs or plasma had no effect. 5. Potentiation was caused by a decreased equilibrium coefficient (Keq) for the NA-adrenoceptor interaction and an increased maximal pressor response (Rmax). 6. It is concluded that cholesterol carried on its apoprotein is capable of potentiating the pressor effects of noradrenaline.
