Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Gossypol on the Reproductive System of Male Rats
TL;DR: Gossypol acetic acid administered orally at 30 mg/kg body weight/day for five weeks inhibited the fertility of male rats without an apparent loss of libido, and degeneration in the tail region of epididymal spermatozoa revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ornithine decarboxylase activity and polyamine content of the placenta and decidual tissue in the rat
TL;DR: Measurements of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity and of the amounts of putrescine, spermidine and spermine in the placenta and uterus of the pregnant rat and in decidual tissue of the pseudo-pregnant rat showed that these wax and wane with the growth rate of the tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diethylstilbestrol stimulates ornithine decarboxylase in kidney cells in culture
TL;DR: Diethylstilbestrol, estradiol-17β, progesterone or testosterone at concentrations of 10 −9 M, but not a number of other hormones tested, increase the activity of ornithine decarboxylase in hamster kidney cells maintained in culture with the peak in activity occurring three to six hours after addition of hormones.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamics of progesterone binding in nuclei and cytosol of estrogen-induced adenocarcinoma cells in primary culture.
TL;DR: Short-term primary cell culture has been used to characterize the regulation of progesterone binding sites in cells from a renal adenocarcinoma induced by estrogen in Syrian hamsters, and data are not consistent with appreciable translocation of cytoplasmic binding sites to nuclei.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of age and 1,4,6-androsta-triene-3,17-dione on activities of hCG-induced 19-hydroxylase and aromatase of rat testes
TL;DR: From the results, it is postulated that there are two distinct steps in the process of aromatization of testosterone, the one, the primary 19-hydroxylation which is inhibited by SKF-525A and SU-compounds, but not by 1,4,6-androstatriene-3,17-dione, and the other, arom atization of 19-Hydroxylated androgen which is inhibition by both 1, 4, 6-andro
