Abstract
In the present experimental study in rabbits the importance of the non-illuminated retina as a superior regulating centre for the maturation of the testicles is demonstrated. Involvement of the retinal maturation by an experimentally provoked total retinal detachment is followed by a cessation of the development of the testicles. The extent of this influence can be brought in evidence by means of the quotation of the fatty acids C20:4/C22:5 as well as on the hand of the histological findings.Entities:
