Abstract

Age-related decrease in blood concentration of testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate was found in mining workers living in the European North. The correlation analysis reveals associations of both hormones with biological age and testosterone with plasma lipid profile. The age dependence of cardiovascular risk and the hormonal mechanisms of its development are discussed.
