Abstract
In trypsin-dispersed adrenal cells of the guinea-pig, the production of 11-hydroxycorticosteroids in vitro was found to be significantly stimulated by 10(-7) -10(-4)M histamine and the maximum steroidogenic response (1.7-fold increase in 11-hydroxycorticosteroid production) was observed at 10(-6)M. The stimulatory action of histamine on steroidogenesis was blocked by cycloheximide treatment.
