Résumé

24 rats mâles castrés furent divisés en 4 groupes de 6. Ils furent traités à des doses physiologiques de benzoate d'œstradiol, de progestérone ou d'une combinaison des deux hormones. On constata que l'administration d'œstrogène augmente la concentration de l'hormone thyréotrope dans le sang des rats, tandis que la concentration de l'hormone gonadotrope en est diminuée. D'autre part l'administration de 0,4 mg de progestérone augmente la concentration des hormones gonadotropes et adrénocorticotropes dans le sang des rats. Le progestérone augmente aussi la quantité d'hormone thyréotrope dans l'hypophyse.
