Description

The effect of castration on 5α-reductase activity in male hamster sebaceous glands was studied using a micromethod of our own design. One week after castration, the activity of 5α-reductase increased by nearly 250%, compared to the control values. This high level of the enzyme activity was maintained for at least 3 weeks after castration. Such increase in the enzyme activity in hamster sebaceous glands by castration is in contrast to the rapid decrease of 5α-reduction in other target organs such as the prostate and seminal vesicles.
