Selected steroidogenic enzymes and receptors were quantitated for mRNA expression using real time PCR. Levels of expression of cholesterol side-chain cleavage (Cyp11a1), 3-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (Hsd3b1), 17-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17B-Hsd), 5α-reductase (Srd5a1), and estrogen receptors alpha (Esr1) and beta (Esr2) were evaluated. A dose response was detected in A (p = 0.0405) and D (p = 0.0188) indicated by #. A significant difference was found in the 250 mg/kg dose compared to the control in A (* p = 0.0304, d = 2.36) and D (* p = 0.0443, d = 1.74). Error bars indicate standard error of the mean.
