dc.description.abstractIntraperitoneal administrations of testosterone (0.5 µg/g body wt), and ovine LH( 1.0 µg/g body wt), GH (5 µg/g body wt) and prolactin ( 10 µg/g body wt) daily for 7 clays during early prespawning phase (May) in C. batrachus produced varied effects on seminal vesicle (SVSI) and testicular (GSI) weights and biochemical correlates. Testosterone and LH treatments significantly increased serum testosterone level and concentrations of total proteins, fructose, hexosamines and sialic acid in both seminal vesicles and testis. Serum E2 levels increased significantly only after testosterone treatment.  GH treatment increased significantly serum testosterone level and only the concentrations of SV hexosamines and testicular protein. Prolactin, however, significantly lowered serum testosterone level and concentrations of total protein, hexosamines in both SV and testis, and testicular fructose and sialic acid levels. The results show that the stimulating effect of LH and GH on SV and testicular activity is mediated through the increased secretion of testosterone and the inhibitory effect of prolactin by decreased testosterone secretion. en_US
