title: [Radioimmunological and biochemical study of the reaction of the adenohypophysis, testes and adrenals in rats and guinea pigs to the administration of the antiandrogen, 4-nitro-3-trifluoromethylisobutyranilide].
abstract: A study was made of the influence of antiandrogen 4'-nitro-3'-trifluorome-thylisobutyranilide (niftolide) on the content of the luteinizing hormone, testosterone and corticosterone in the rat blood plasma, the content of testosterone in the blood plasma and on the 17-OCS and 17-KS urinary excretion in guinea pigs. The data obtained pointed to a marked intensification of lutropin and testosterone secretion. The observed changes are explained by the capacity of niftolide to block the inhibitory influence of the androgens of the feed-back mechanism of the gonadotropin secretion control. It is suggested that niftolide can be used for the investigation of the functional condition of the hypothalamo-hypophysio-testicular system. Niftolide had no effect on the indices of the glucocorticoid activity of the adrenal glands in rats and guinea pigs.
