How Do Androgens Speed Up The Metabolic Rate?


How do androgens speed up the metabolic rate?

I kind of meant, how does an increase in androgens circulating in the blood speed up metabolic rate?

Males typically have more skeletal muscle mass than females. Androgens promote the enlargement of skeletal muscle cells and probably act in a coordinated manner to enhance muscle function by acting on several cell types in skeletal muscle tissue.[4] One type of cell that conveys hormone signals to generating muscle is the myoblast. Higher androgen levels lead to increased expression of androgen receptor. Fusion of myoblasts generates myotubes, in a proccess that is linked to androgen receptor levels

This is just what i found lol. hope this answers ur question

Androgen receptor (AR) null male mice (ARL鈥?Y) revealed late-onset obesity, which was confirmed by computed tomography鈥揵ased body composition analysis. ARL鈥?Y mice were euphagic compared with the wild-type male (ARX/Y) controls, but they were also less dynamic and consumed less oxygen. Transcript profiling indicated that ARL鈥?Y mice had lower transcripts for the thermogenetic uncoupling protein 1, which was subsequently found to be ligand-dependently activated by AR. We also found enhanced secretion of adiponectin, which is insulin sensitizing, from adipose tissue and a relatively lower expression of peroxisome proliferator鈥揳ctivated receptor-{gamma} in white adipose tissue in comparison to ARX/Y mice. Both factors might explain why the overall insulin sensitivity of ARL鈥?Y mice remained intact, despite their apparent obesity. The results revealed that AR plays important roles in male metabolism by affecting the energy balance, and it is negative to both adiposity and insulin sensitivity.
