Summary
Low molecular weight inhibin (1500 daltons) was obtained from sheep, human, rat and chicken testes by sequential chromatography on Sephadex G-100 and G-25. In addition to its ability to suppress circulating FSH levels in adult castrated male rats, it also exhibits binding inhibition of I125hFSH to rat testicular receptors.
