Site of conversion of desoxycorticosterone acetate to progestin.

The conversion of DCA to progestin in vivo, which has been shown in the case of the monkey (4) and now the rat, indicates one possible mechanism by which progestin may occur in the male. In addition, these studies also show that, at least in the rodent, the adrenals and the kidneys are the sites of this conversion. Investigations on the conversion of DCA to progestin in other species, as well as studies on the release See PDF for Table of progestin by tissue slices incubated with or without DCA, are currently in progress.
