Serum lipids and dehydroepiandrosterone excretion in normal subjects

Serum levels of cholesterol, phospholipids, β-lipoproteins, and free fatty acids were correlated with urinary dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) excretion in healthy blood donors. An indirect dependence was found for cholesterol and phospholipids that was more important in persons with a low DHEA excreti...

Description
Summary:Serum levels of cholesterol, phospholipids, β-lipoproteins, and free fatty acids were correlated with urinary dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) excretion in healthy blood donors. An indirect dependence was found for cholesterol and phospholipids that was more important in persons with a low DHEA excretion. The correlation seems to be more a function of the dependence of both DHEA excretion and serum lipid levels on age than a direct relationship between these factors.
