Abstrakt: Testosterone propionate decreased activity of carboxypeptidase H in the male mongrel mice pituitary gland, activity of the CP H in testicles, and increased these parameters in 4 hours after treatment. Progesterone decreased the CP H activity in pituitary gland and increased it in testicles. Progesterone increased the CP H activity in female pituitary gland and decreased it in adrenal gland and hypothalamus. The role of the CP H in the effects of the sex steroids on the function of peptidergic systems is discussed.
