Abstract
A side-effect of the administration of cyproterone acetate, an antiandrogenic steroid, to newborn, juvenile or adult male mice (in doses comparable to those used clinically) was found in a marked reduction of the white pulp of the spleen and reduced weight or even absence of the thymus.Keywords
