1 The addition of prolactin (1 microgram/ml) or dexamethasone (10(-7) M) to the Leydig cell incubation medium induces a 20% increase of the basal estradiol production, whereas, under LH or dbcAMP stimulations, 46 and 41% decreases are noted; moreover, a synergistic effect between prolactin and dexamethasone was observed in presence of dbcAMP leading to a 53% diminution of the estradiol synthesis.
