Enhanced striatal β1-adrenergic receptor expression following hormone loss in adulthood is programmed by both early sexual differentiation and puberty: a study of humans and rats.

abstract：:The androgen receptor (AR) from calf uterine cytosol has been studied in terms of steroid-binding affinity, hormone dissociation kinetics, and DNA-cellulose-binding capacity. The binding affinity for three androgens, analyzed under conditions where binding to progesterone receptor did not occur, decreased in the order...
