Abstract

Progesterone-binding capacity of cytochrome P450 and rate of progesterone consumption by cytochrome P450-dependent hydroxylases are highest in the Leydig cell fraction but are also detectable in the non-Leydig cell fraction of interstitial cells as well as in seminiferous tubules from rat testis. The Leydig cell compartment, however, contributes only to a minor extent to the total progesterone binding and hydroxylation within the whole testis.
