Androgen Receptors
Testicular androgen receptors analyzed, expression defined
June 13th, 2005
Recent research published from Japan has elucidated the expression of steroid receptor coactivator-1 (SRC-1) and p300/CBP/co-integrator protein (p/CIP) in the mouse testis. "The function of the testis is regulated by androgens. The activity of testicular androgens is expressed through androgen receptors and many kinds of coactivators in a similar way as with other steroid hormones. "In this study," wrote K. Fujita and colleagues, Kitasato University, "the expression of androgen receptors (AR) SRC-1 and p/CIP in the mouse testis was analyzed by immunohistochemistry." "The AR signals were detected in the nucleus of peritubular...
