Steroid sulfatase activity was quantified in liver microsomes from hypophysectomized adult female rats treated with estradiol and continuous or intermittent human growth hormone (hGH). Hypophysectomy clearly enhanced sulfatase activity as compared to intact female rats. Normal female values were completely restored by continuous infusion of hGH (1.4 i.u./kg/day). Neither the same dose of hGH given as two daily injections nor estrogen replacement therapy had any effect. It is concluded that liver microsome sulfatase activity in the non-pregnant rat is regulated by the sexually dimorphic secretory pattern of GH.
