Induction of the cytosol enzymes involved in the androgen metabolism in the female rat liver by testosterone was studied. The treatment by testosterone propionate increased the production of 5beta-androstane-3alpha,17beta-diol in the 105.000xg supernatant when 4-14C-testosterone was used as a substrate. The conversion of 4-14C-androstenedione to labelled testosterone was increased by the injection of testosterone propionate into female rats. Actinomycin D or puromycin which was administered for four days with daily subcutaneous injections of testosterone propionate prevented the increase of these enzymes by testosterone propionate. Actinomycin D given once with the final injection of testosterone propionate blocked the induction of cytosol 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase by the treatment of testosterone propionate, whereas puromycin given in the same manner as actinomycin D had no such a blocking effect on the enzyme. Both of these antibiotics given once with the final injection of testosterone propionate showed no preventing effects on the induction of cytosol delta4-5beta-reductase by testosterone propionate.
