Abstract: | DURING a longitudinal investigation on the changes in urinary steroid profile with sexual maturation in healthy children, a new steroid-like substance, giving most of the well known steroid reactions, was found1. Since then, the substance has appeared consistently in microgram quantities on urinary steroid chromatograms in our laboratory2, running close to 11β-hydroxyandrosterone in the Bush B3 system3. Similar substances have been noted by other workers (Drs D. M. Cathro, C. C. Forsyth and J. Bertrand, personal communications). Children suffering from lipodystrophy, progeria and leucine-sensitive hypoglycaemia excreted this substance in larger quantities than the normals4. |
