Riassunto

Da 185 g di tessuto testicolare diCiona intestinalis sono stati estratti ed identificati i seguenti ormoni steroidi: deidroepiandrosterone, cortisone e cortisolo. Nel tessuto ovarico é presente il cortisone. Incubando il tessuto testicolare con pregnenolone-7-H3 e progester-one-4-C14 sono stati isolati i seguenti metaboliti: deidroepiandrosterone, testosterone, e desossicorticosterone. Dalle incubazioni del tessuto ovarico con gli stessi precursori sono stati isolati i seguenti metaboliti: 17α-idrossipregnenolone, deidroepiandrosterone, androstenedione, testosterone, desossicorticosterone e cortisone.
