We discover how steroid hormones were first identified and how testosterone was shown to be essential for male development. Moving forward we explore how and where testosterone is produced, and how the body controls testosterone production. We then investigate the impact testosterone has on different body systems both during their development and function, and how perturbation of testosterone action is associated with disease. We complete our story with an exploration of the emerging roles of testosterone in clinical therapy, and the future potential for manipulation of the testosterone signaling system for human health benefit.SpringerBriefs in Reproductive Biology,2194-4253Reproductive medicineEndocrinology Cell biologyReproductive Medicinehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H56002Endocrinologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33053Cell Biologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L16008Reproductive medicine.Endocrinology .Cell biology.Reproductive Medicine.Endocrinology.Cell Biology.615.366Smith Lee Bauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1057958Mitchell Rod Tauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMcEwan Iain Jauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910437837103321Testosterone: From Basic Research to Clinical Applications2495886UNINA
