Testosterone hormone, light micrograph C015 / 6787
Testosterone hormone. Polarised light micrograph of crystals of the male sex hormone testosterone. Testosterone is the main human androgen hormone, the class of steroid hormones responsible for the development of male reproductive organs and secondary sex characteristics. It is mainly produced in the testes by the action of a series of enzymes on pregnenolone, a steroid derived from cholesterol. Testosterone may be used in hormone replacement therapy to treat delayed puberty in boys, hypogonadism and some types of impotence. In women, testosterone may be effective in the treatment of breast cancer. Magnification 25x at 4x5 inch

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of testosterone hormone crystals under polarised light. The image, captured at a magnification of 25x on a 4x5 inch scale, reveals the mesmerizing structure of this vital male sex hormone. Testosterone plays a crucial role in human development, specifically in the formation of male reproductive organs and secondary sexual characteristics. Produced primarily in the testes through enzymatic reactions on pregnenolone, a cholesterol-derived steroid, it is classified as an androgen hormone. Beyond its natural functions, testosterone finds applications in medical treatments such as hormone replacement therapy for delayed puberty in boys, hypogonadism (low testosterone levels), and certain types of impotence. Interestingly, it also exhibits potential effectiveness in breast cancer treatment among women. The crystal-clear details presented by this photograph offer viewers an opportunity to appreciate the complexity and elegance inherent within biochemical compounds like testosterone. It serves as a reminder that even at microscopic levels, nature's creations can be awe-inspiring. Captured by PASIEKA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY with precision and artistry, this print not only appeals to those interested in chemistry or biochemistry but also invites contemplation about our own biological makeup.
