Journal ArticleDOI
The biosynthesis of estrogens by cow follicles.
E. Lacroix,W. Eechaute,I. Leusen +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, granulosa and thecal cells of ripening cow follicles were incubated in vitro in the presence of different steroid precursors involved in the Δ 4 and Δ 5 -pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of age on the formation of 5α-androstanediol and 7α-hydroxy-testosterone by incubated rat testes
E. Lacroix,W. Eechaute,I. Leusen +2 more
TL;DR: Testes from rats of different ages were incubated with or without tritiated testosterone and metabolites were mainly metabolized to 7α-hydroxylated testosterone in adult animals, and to Set-reduced metabolites in immature animals.
Journal ArticleDOI
The conversion of testosterone to 7α-hydroxy-testosterone by incubated rat testes
W. Eechaute,E. Lacroix,I. Leusen +2 more
TL;DR: In incubations of testes of adult rats with testosterone yield rather important amounts of a very polar metabolite which is identified as 7α-hydroxytestosterone, based on chromatography, spectrophotometry, fluorimetry, counter current distribution and NMR spectrometry.
Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of gonadotrophin (HCG) treatment on the steroidogenesis by incubated rat testes
E. Lacroix,W. Eechaute,I. Leusen +2 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that HCG provokes a shift in the testicular metabolism pattern of testosterone from the 7α-hydroxylation to the 5α-reduction pathway.
Journal Article
Steroid Metabolism and Steroid Receptors in Dimethylbenz(a)anthracene-induced Rat Mammary Tumors
TL;DR: It was concluded that steroid metabolism of dimethylbenz(a)anthracene-induced rat mammary tumors was not related to the ER and/or PR concentration of tumor tissue.
