Male Wistar rats were submitted to bilateral high frequency lesions in the medial preoptic-anterior hypothalamic area or to sham procedure. The behavioral effect of the lesions was observed and plasma testosterone (T) and estradiol (E2) were measured by radioimmunoassay. In vitro metabolism of T was studied in the hypothalamus. Lesions produced a permanent deficit in male sexual behavior, an increase of plasma T and E2, and of hypothalamic T aromatization, and a decrease of T conversion to 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone (DHT).
将雄性Wistar大鼠的内侧视前区-下丘脑前部区域进行双侧高频损伤,或进行假手术。观察损伤的行为效应,并通过放射免疫测定法测量血浆睾酮(T)和雌二醇(E2)。研究下丘脑T的体外代谢。损伤导致雄性性行为永久性缺陷、血浆T和E2增加、下丘脑T芳香化增加,以及T向5α-双氢睾酮(DHT)的转化减少。
