Enzymatic oxidation and reduction of C19-delta5-3beta-hydroxysteroids by hepatic microsomes. V. Testosterone as a neonatal determinant in rats of the 7- and 16alpha-hydroxylation and reduction of 3beta-hydroxyandrost-5-en-17-one (DHA).

T Tabei, W L Heinrichs

The oxido-reductive metabolism of [14C]dehydroepiandrosterone (DHA) by hepatic microsomes from 40- or 70-day-old rats of either sex castrated neonatally has been compared after several treatment regimens with testosterone propionate (TP). The low transformation rate of DHA to 16-oxygenated metabolites produced by neonatal orchiectomy (0.09 +/- 0.04 nmoles min-1 mg-1), was not restored in 70-day-old males by either neonatal or pubertal treatment with TP. The rates were only partially restored (0.74 +/- 0.44) toward nromal adult levels (1...
