Concentrations of testosterone, progesterone, Delta4-androstenedione, dihydrotestosterone, 11-ketotestosterone, estrone, estradiol-17beta, 5alpha-androstane, 3alpha, 17beta-diol, and 17alpha-hydroxy, 20beta-dihydroprogesterone were determined by radioimmunoassays in the blood plasma and testicular homogenates of Scyliorhinus canicula. Samples were collected almost every month for 27 months. The weights

Androstanediol glucuronide (Adiol G) has been reported to be a marker of peripheral androgen metabolism and action. It consists of two isomers, Adiol 3-G and Adiol 17-G. Adiol G is formed from unconjugated precursors by the enzyme glucuronyl transferase. To

Serum testosterone levels are elevated prior to the lutropin surge, and decline abruptly following the release of endogenous lutropin. To investigate this phenomenon, the activity of 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, the enzyme directly related to testosterone production from androstenedione, was measured.
