Outline of Final Research Achievements

The following actions of a SARM, S42 were clarified;(1)from array analysis of mouse tissues loaded with high fat diet, the induction of catecholamine synthesis enzymes and GLUT4 expression in liver and visceral adipose tissue may be related to the anti-obesity action of S42, (2)from the investigations using cultured myotubes and orchiectomy mouse, S42 may act on catabolism suppression and synthesis promotion of muscle proteins, (3)S42 inhibits proliferation of castration-sensitive human prostate cancer cell lines in vitro and in vivo. Regarding the clinical significance of testosterone(T), the usefulness of the total T value as a diagnostic index of metabolic syndrome and no relationship between various T values and total score of questionnaire AMS in LOH (late-onset hypogonadism) examination were clarified.From the relationship between insulin resistance and AMS score, increased AMS score in LOH may reflect low grade inflammation caused by insulin resistance.
