The testicular secretory response to hurnan chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) was also not affected by treatment with pineal extracts. It is therefore suggested that pineal extracts have no direct effect on the biosynthesis and/or release of androgens by testicular tissue., Acta medica Nagasakiensia. 1974, 18(1-4), p.38-40}, pages = {38--40}, title = {Lack of Direct Effect of Pineal Extracts on the Secretory Function of the Testis}, volume = {18}, year = {1974} }
