Perinatal testosterone exposure potentiates vascular dysfunction by ERβ suppression in endothelial progenitor cells.
Recent clinical cohort study shows that testosterone therapy increases cardiovascular diseases in men with low testosterone levels, excessive circulating androgen levels may play a detrimental role in the vascular system, while the potential mechanism and effect of testosterone exposure on the vascu...
