1 | The mRNA levels of 3beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3beta-HSD) were significantly reduced after exposure to 0.9-ppm toluene. | Toluene | hydroxy-delta-5-steroid dehydrogenase, 3 beta- and steroid delta-isomerase 1 | Rattus norvegicus |
2 | The mRNA levels of 3beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3beta-HSD) were significantly reduced after exposure to 0.9-ppm toluene. | Toluene | hydroxy-delta-5-steroid dehydrogenase, 3 beta- and steroid delta-isomerase 1 | Rattus norvegicus |
3 | In addition, immunohistochemical analysis showed reduced 3beta-HSD-immunoreactive areas in the interstitial region of fetal testes after exposure to 0.9 and 9 ppm, but not 0.09 ppm, toluene. | Toluene | hydroxy-delta-5-steroid dehydrogenase, 3 beta- and steroid delta-isomerase 1 | Rattus norvegicus |
4 | These findings indicate that toluene reduced the synthesis and secretion of testosterone in fetal testes from rats possibly as a consequence of reduced 3beta-HSD expression. | Toluene | hydroxy-delta-5-steroid dehydrogenase, 3 beta- and steroid delta-isomerase 1 | Rattus norvegicus |
