摘要: The distribution of androgen receptor expression within the developing rat gubernaculum was examined at different times during fetal and neonatal development using polyclonal antibodies directed amino-terminus (amino acids 1–21) carboxy-terminus 898–917) receptor. These studies reveal a high level in undifferentiated cells that comprise mesenchymal core early development. However, morphological alterations into muscular structure, detected these declines, with minimal immunoreactivity present 2 weeks postpartum. Whether loss staining mesenchyme is related to decreases expression, death cells, or differentiation myoblasts remains be determined. (Endocrinology 128: 383–387, 1991)
