[Testosterone-7alpha-3H uptake by the anlage of organs related to reproduction in female rate embryos in experiments in vivo and in vitro].
The dynamics of testosterone-7alpha-3H (T-3H) uptake by the developing genital system organs, as well as by the suprarenals, brain cortex and muscles was studied in vivo experiments with the 14-20 days old female rat embryos. Besides, the T3H uptake by the reproductive tract tissues and muscles just after the isolation of embryos from the uterus and after 2 days cultivation in the diffusion chambers implanted in the abdominal cavity of the adult castrated rats was studied in in vitro experiments. Moreover, the T3H uptake by the embryonic tissues was determined in the absence of ovaries. The specific uptake was noted in all the tissues at all developmental stages under all experimental conditions. The selective T3H uptake was noted during the periods corresponding to the rudiments' morphogenesis carachteristic for males. In the absence of ovaries, the T3H uptake by the reproductive tract tissues in vitro experiments decreased, but after 2 days cultivation in the diffusion chambers increased. The possible participation of ovaries in the female sex differentiation and the bisexual nature of rudiments determined by the presence of receptors both to estro- and androgens are discussed.
