Abstract
Intramuscular injections of dehydroepiandrosterone in a dose of 0.7 mg/kg for 10 days significantly increased nuclear and cytoplasmic fractions of androgen receptors in the preoptic/anterior hypothalamic area. Presumably, the effect of the neurosteroid is mediated by 5 alpha-reductase transformation of dehydroepiandrosterone into 5 alpha-dehydroepiandrosterone, which initiates the synthesis of androgen receptors.
