Human pituitary FSH was found to increase the incorporation of tritiated lysine into testicular protein in prepubertal mice in vivo. Radioactivity was measured in washed trichloracetic acid precipitates prepared from crude testicular homogenates. The time of maximum response was 8 to 16 hr after subcutaneous injection of the hormone. This was considerably later than the maximum response in vitro reported by other workers.
Neither HCG nor dibutyryl cyclic 3′,5′-adenosine monophosphate had a significant effect on the incorporation of lysine.
Reproduction is committed to supporting researchers in demonstrating the impact of their articles published in the journal.
The two types of article metrics we measure are (i) more traditional full-text views and pdf downloads, and (ii) Altmetric data, which shows the wider impact of articles in a range of non-traditional sources, such as social media.
