1. Pregnant mare serum hormone, when injected into normal and hypophysectomized males, causes an elevation in red cell count. Injections of testosterone into castrated females or hypophysectomized males and females likewise increase red cell count. 2. The red cell counts of normal females treated with pregnant mare serum hormone are lowered, those of castrate or hypophysectomized females, similarly treated, remain unchanged. Estradiol lowers the counts of normal females. 3. It seems possible that the gonadal secretions are responsible, to some extent, for the sex difference in normal red cell count encountered in many species of animals. |
