Biological interconversion reactions of C14 – desoxycorticosterone acetate and C14 – progesterone.

In 1889, Brown-Séquard reported an astonishing degree of physical rejuvenation from self-administered subcutaneous injections of an extract of dog testes. Although he attributed his sense of "well-being" to a substance present in this testicular extract, this conclusion was completely erro...
