Abstract

Unilateral cryptorchidism has been produced in prepubertal rats by abdominal fixation of an undesc ended testis and in adult rats by transplantation of a previously descended testis from the scrotal sac into the abdominal cavity. The incorporation of L-lysine-U-C14 into protein of slices of both types of experimentally induced cryptorchid testes 30 days following the surgical procedure has been found to be markedly greater than that observed for slices of contralateral, scrotal testes of the same animal,.
