Abstract
The presence of testosterone is a prerequisite for the development of chloroform-induced renal tubular necrosis in mice. The purpose of this study was to check whether methyltestosterone exerts the same influence. Castrated males and females were treated with one of these compounds: those treated with testosterone developed renal tubular necrosis after chloroform injection, those which received methyltestosterone were free of this lesion.
