摘要: The relationship between the metabolism of androsterone and skatole, major compounds responsible for boar taint, was investigated in F 4 Swedish Yorkshire x European Wild Pig intact males. androstenone skatole were studied liver microsomes, testicular steroid production measured testes microsomes. Including assays reduced formation 6-hydroxyskatole (pro-MII), three other metabolites (P <.05). additional not affected. Liver microsomal incubations produced two metabolites, I II. rate metabolite correlated with metabolism. related to levels fat. Testicular synthesis 16-androstene steroids combined estrogens androgens, plasma androstenone, fat, Plasma estrone sulfate fat negatively F-1 pro-MII sulfation. These results indicate that are related. However, it is likely due more a link rather than liver. Sex may affect this because their biosynthesis along possible inhibition
