Abstract
Experiments on the rat indicate that the progeria-like syndrome induced by chronic intoxication with dihydrotachysterol can be prevented by concurrent d-α-tocopheryl acetate treatment. Methyltestosterone is equally effective, but no synergism could be demonstrated between vitamin E and the anabolic androgen.
