“…This, along with the maintained muscle depth, implies improved carcass quality in at least the Oxford and Texel lambs. These effects are consistent with the reported stimulation of a muscle protein synthesis by somatotropin (Buttery, 1983). Similar improvements in carcass quality have been reported in pigs (Machlin, 1972).…”

“…It was originally proposed that this effect was due to interaction of the androgen with the gluco¬ corticoid receptor since it was shown by Mayer & Rosen (1975) that androgens compete directly for the cytosolic receptor. However, more recent results for trenbolone (Buttery, 1983) indicate that receptor competition is unlikely and that inhibition of produc¬ tion of glucocorticoids may be involved (Thomas & Rodway, 1982;Sillence et al 1985). Our results using stanozolol in female rats would tend to preclude this, since we found no changes in total serum corti¬ costerone levels despite increased growth and muscle protein sysnthesis, although concentrations of the free hormone were not measured and may change.…”

“…Trenbolone (131) and (3-agonists (132,133) increase meat yield via a reduction of muscle protein degradation. Mostly, no interactions were observed when the combined substances exerted a preand a post-absorptive mechanism.…”
