regarding androstenedion, does it have the same activity as the testosterone?
because i read that in 17 B dehydrogenase defeciency, which is the enzyme responsible for the formation of testosterone from androstenedion, the male internal sexual structures ( seminefrous tubules...etc) are gonna be normal!! and these structure, to develop in the embryo, need testosterone!!!
anybody? hoping, ebna....
