Abstract
PROTEINURIA in the adult male rat has been recognized as a sex characteristic since 19331. At first the source of the sex-related proteins was considered to be the prostate gland1, but more recently evidence has suggested the kidneys2,3. These sites are likely because of the known anabolic effects of androgens on prostatic and renal tissues4,5.
