Abstract
Histochemical observations were made on the activities of 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (HSDH), 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3 beta-HSDH) and 3 oC-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3 oC-HSDH) in the preputial glands of normal and isoproterenol treated animals. Observed decrease in the activities of all the three HSDH's are correlated with the possibility of decreased biological effectiveness of circulating steroids after isoproterenol treatment.
