Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Depression in aging men has been related to low sex hormone concentrations; the putatively modulating effects of the genetically determined androgen receptor (AR) cytosine-adenosine-guanine (CAG) repeat polymorphism are often not taken into account. The aim of this study was to determine how sex hormone levels and the AR polymorphism relate to depressive symptoms in aging men. METHODS: This...
