Serum dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels correlated positively with the degree of hypertrophy, fibrosis, and dysfunction from cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in female and male patients with aortic valve stenosis. Left ventricular proteome profiling had been performed in this patient cohort and an association between serum DHT levels and the abundance of the hypertrophy-associated protein moesin and the fibrosis-associated protein vimentin was found.
