Abstract

SUMMARY: The wheel-running activity of 19 male rats was examined before and after castration. Castration significantly reduced spontaneous activity. Testosterone propionate (TP) administration increased activity to levels before castration. Cyproterone acetate given with TP did not inhibit the increase in activity but inhibited the growth of seminal vesicles.
