Mutat Res. 2003 Jun 19;527(1-2):67-80.

As cytochrome P450 (CYP) induction has been linked to non-genotoxic carcinogenesis, we investigated whether procymidone administration causes induction of CYP-dependent monooxygenases in liver, kidney and lung microsomes of male Swiss Albino CD1 mice after single or repeated (daily for three consecutive days) i.p. treatment with either 400 or 800 (1/10 or 1/20 of the DL (50)) mgkg (-1) b.w. procymidone.

J Endocrinol. 2005 Oct;187(1):117-24.

The procymidone-containing diet elevated serum levels of LH and testosterone and, furthermore, Leydig cells isolated from procymidone-treated animals displayed an enhanced capacity for producing testosterone in response to stimulation by hCG or dibutyryl cAMP, as well as elevated expression of steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (StAR), cytochrome P450 side-chain cleavage (P450 scc) and cytochrome P450 17alpha (P450c17).
