Abstract
Bilateral orchiectomy has been performed in adult albino rats and tissue lipid profiles were compared with the controls. Both the reproductive and non-reproductive tissues and serum accumulated lipid with suppressed lipolysis on orchiectomy. The levels of triglycerides and cholesterol were elevated in all the tissues of orchiectomized rats. The phospholipid content of epididymis was significantly depleted, while the same was elevated in non-reproductive tissues.
