title: [Pregnanediol and pregnanetriol levels in the urine of rats after thymectomy].
abstract: The authors examined arterial blood pressure and excretion of pregnanetriol and pregnanediol in urine of adult male rats of Westar strain under normal conditions and after thymectomy. There was an elevation of arterial blood pressure after 45th day of thymectomy. Excretion of pregnanediol was increased on the 30th day, but that of pregnanetriol on the 60th day after removal of the gland. The increased excretion of both progesterone metabolites was connected with increased renal function, which probably played pathogenic role in postthymectomized hypertensive reaction.
