Studies on the role of the sex-hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) in prostatic gland hypertrophy in men. II. In vitro research
Abstract
The effect of SHBG, stilbestrol and cyproterone acetate on the amount of 3H-DHT in the cell nuclei of hypertrophic prostatic glands was studied in vitro. It was found the SHBG lowers the DHT content, whereas stilbestrol and cyproterone acetate in the presence of SHBG tends to increase the amount of 3H-DHT in the nuclei.
