title: Serum androgen levels after streptozotocin administration in the male rat.
abstract: Serum levels of testosterone and dihydrotestosterone were measured in control and diabetic animals 5, 10 and 15 days after streptozotocin administration. The diabetic state produced a marked reduction in serum androgen levels 10 and 15 days after streptozotocin administration. Insulin treatment partially restored the circulating androgen levels when administered to diabetic rats.
