title: Identification and characterization of the human hepatic androgen receptor.
abstract: Human liver contains components in both cytosol and nucleosol which bind the synthetic testosterone derivative, mibolerone, with a high affinity, moderate capacity and a high specificity for androgens. Gel filtration chromatography shows two binding components, a high molecular weight component (mol wt. 250 000) present in cytosol alone and a low molecular weight component (mol wt. 75 000) present in cytosol and nucleosol. Human liver contains the classical androgen receptor.
