## Abstract We have demonstrated that dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) acts directly on rat zona fasciculataโreticularis (ZFR) cells to diminish corticosterone secretion by an inhibition of postโcAMP pathway, and decreases functions of steroidogenic enzymes after P450~scc~ as well as steroidogenic acu

The role of prolactin (PRL) in the male is not fully defined. The aim of this study was to investigate the function and mechanism of PRL on the production of corticosterone by zona fasciculata-reticularis (ZFR) cells in vitro. The ZFR cells were obtained from male rats under normal, hyperprolactinem
## Abstract Evodiamine (EVO) and rutaecarpine (RUT) are two bioactive alkaloid isolated from Chinese herb named WuโChuโYu. Previous studies have shown that EVO and RUT possess thermoregulation, vascular regulation, antiโallergic, antiโnociceptive and antiโinflammatory activities. The mechanisms of
## Abstract Previous studies have indicated that digoxin (DG) inhibits testosterone production by rat testicular interstitial cells through both in vivo and in vitro experiments. DG and digitoxin (DT), but not ouabain, inhibit the progesterone, pregnenolone, and corticosterone secretion by rat gran
