1 Examination of the effect of prenatal testosterone exposure on the number of AgRP and POMC neurones in adult ewes showed that prenatal testosterone excess significantly increased the number of AgRP but not POMC neurones compared to controls; this increase was restricted to the middle division of the ARC, was mimicked by prenatal treatment with dihydrotestosterone, a non-aromatisable androgen, and was blocked by co-treatment of prenatal testosterone with the anti-androgen, flutamide. Testosterone proopiomelanocortin Homo sapiens
