Abstract
Conclusions In some young normal female rats, as in young castrated males, the prostate grows, develops large acini, high epithelium and light areas diagnostic of a secretory state. In both, the prostate differentiation is maintained only until about 40 days when regression begins. The factor causing this temporary differentiation is thought to be the juvenile cortex of the adrenal.
