| Popis: | Pre-incubation of dispersed testicular cells from 18-day-old mouse fetuses in presence of testosterone or dihydrotestosterone resulted in a significant decrease of the hCG-stimulated testosterone production. These results suggest that during late fetal life testosterone production may be inhibited by an ultra-short loop feedback of androgens. |
