Low levels of gonadal androgens (testosterone\/dihydrotestosterone) and adrenal androgens (dehydroepiandrosterone and its sulfate), as well as lower androgen\/estrogen ratios, have been detected in body fluids (that is, blood, synovial fluid, smears, salivary) of both male and female rheumatoid arthritis patients, supporting the possibility of a pathogenic role for the decreased levels of the immune\u2010suppressive androgens. Several physiological, pathological, and therapeutic conditions may change the sex hormone milieu and\/or peripheral conversion, including the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, the postpartum period, menopause, chronic stress, and inflammatory cytokines, as well as use of corticosteroids, oral contraceptives, and steroid hormonal replacements, inducing altered androgen\/estrogen ratios and related effects. Therefore, sex hormone balance is still a crucial factor in the regulation of immune and inflammatory responses, and the therapeutical modulation of this balance should represent part of advanced biological treatments for rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune rheumatic diseases.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1749-6632.2002.tb04210.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,7,9]],"date-time":"2009-07-09T14:35:37Z","timestamp":1247150137000},"page":"131-142","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":159,"title":["Androgens and Estrogens Modulate the Immune and Inflammatory Responses in Rheumatoid Arthritis"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"966","author":[{"given":"MAURIZIO","family":"CUTOLO","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"BRUNO","family":"SERIOLO","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"BARBARA","family":"VILLAGGIO","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"CARMEN","family":"PIZZORNI","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"CHIARA","family":"CRAVIOTTO","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"ALBERTO","family":"SULLI","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,1,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0889-857X(05)70171-X"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0889-857X(05)70174-5"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_2","first-page":"203","article-title":"Integrated hormonal\u2010immunological\u2010vascular (H\u2010I\u2010V) systems interactions in the rheumatic diseases","volume":"13","author":"Masi A.T.","year":"1995","journal-title":"Clin.
