Popis:	Evidence obtained in the last few years indicates that the sex hormones may be allied chemically and physiologically to lipids, particularly to cholesterol which, it would appear, may very well in time be found to be the mother substance of these important chemical messengers of the body. The method of preparing progestin as developed by Allen (1) might well be taken for a method to separate some lipid. Butenandt (6) has recently suggested formulas for oestrin and androsterone which bear many points of resemblance to the latest formula deduced for cholesterol by Windaus (10). The lipid composition of the ovary and corpus luteum has been found to vary with the sexual cycle. Bloor, Okey and Corner (2) have presented the most complete data available in this respect with reference to the corpus luteum of the sow. Boyd (5) has shown that a similar relationship holds for the ovary of pregnant and pseudopregnant rabbits. Preliminary experiments in this laboratory by Elden (8) have shown that the oestrin and prog...
