Abstract
An enzyme immunoassay of 19-nor-deoxycorticosterone in rat serum was established. The normal value of 19-nor-DOC in rat serum obtained from 9:00 am to 10:00 am was 148 ± 30 ng/dl (mean ± SE, n = 10). Serum levels of this steroid decreased in rats with adrenal regeneration hypertension during the course of the experiment up to 8 weeks, while systolic blood pressure rose progressively. We concluded that this mineralocorticoid is not involved at least as a circulating hormone in the pathogenesis of adrenal regeneration hypertension in rats.
