Abstract
The decrease in mouse kidney weight after castration was accompanied by a proportionate decrease in acid RNase. Administration of testosterone propionate simultaneously restored both the weight and enzyme activity to their normal levels. The total alkaline ribonuclease was not changed after either castration or androgen administration. Consequently the concentration of the enzyme changed in inverse proportion to the changes in weight.Keywords
