title: Further studies on the synthesis and secretion of inhibin-like material by rat ventral prostate explants in vitro.
abstract: To authenticate further the testicular androgen independent status of synthesis and secretion of inhibin-like material by the rat ventral prostate, explants of this organ were maintained for a period of 6 days in vitro, altering the kind of medium used for culture. The various spent media had significant inhibin-like activity despite the absence of sera supplement in some cases.
