Metabolism of 4-14C-dehydroepiandrosterone and 4-14C-4-androstene -3, 17-dione by isolated cells of early human placenta.
The preparation of isolated cells was used for the study of the metabolism of 4-14C-dehydroepiandrosterone and 4-14C-4-androstene-3,17-dione in early human placenta. Free cells suspension converted dehydroepiandrosterone and 4-androstene-3,17-dione into estrone, estradiol-17beta and into C1[neutral steroids 4-androstene-3,17-dione and testosterone.
