Action of an androgen (17 alpha-methyl, 17-beta-hydroxyandrostane-1,4-dien 3-one) on blood cell aggregation

Abstract

Action of an Androgen (17 a-methyl, 17 /3-hy- droxy-androsta-1,4-dien 3-one) on platelet aggregation

Studies undertaken on the platelet ag­gregation in calf and human normal plas­ma, have allowed to stablish some limities of normality, to which reference can be made.

The Androgen 17-a-methyl-17-/Miydro- xy-androsta-l,4-dien 3-one shows in vitro an anti-agreggation effect, both on calf and human plasma, which seems to be directely related to the drug concentra­tion.
