Abstract

1. 1. When differences in body weights were allowed for, weight of the anterior pituitary glands and their FSH content were similar in both heat-acclimatized male rats and controls. 2. 2. l-Lysine-U-14C incorporation rate into testicular proteins was higher in heat-acclimatized animals at all temperatures studied. In this study, maximal value occurred at 36°C.
