Metabolism of dehydroepiandrosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate in tissue extracts of rabbit ovaries [PDF]
Abstract The simultaneous incubation of 3H-dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate and 14C-dehydroepiandrosterone by soluble and microsomal extracts of rabbit ovaries was investigated. 3H-dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate was converted to 3H-androstenediol-3-sulfate by both extracts.
