Abstract
The influence of electrical stimulation of various hypothalamic areas on the urinary excretion of testosterone glycuronide (TG) was investigated in the awake, unrestrained, unanesthetized male rat. The urinary TG was determined by means of a gas chromatographic method. Either low-rate or high-rate electrical stimulation of paraventricular, suprachiasmatic and medial tuberal regions elicited a highly significant, short-lasting increase in the urinary TG excretion. No modification in the urinary TG excretion occurred after electrical stimulation of other brain formations as the cerebral cortex or the cerebellum.
