Abstract
Cryptorchidism was associated with increased responsiveness of the isoproterenol-sensitive adenylate cyclase in membrane particles from rat testis. Abdominal testes from uni- and bilaterally cryptorchid rats showed the same activities. The change in isoproterenol-responsive adenylate cyclase was independent of the age at which the animals were made cryptorchid. The isoproterenol response was maximal 3-4 weeks after the rats were made cryptorchid. By 2-3 months after orchidopexy the isoproterenol response in the rat testis had decreased to normal control values.
