DNA-dependent synthesis of RNA is not implicated in growth response of chick comb to androgens.
Local application of actinomycin D does not detectably modify growth response of the chick comb to androgens. The mode of action of androgens on chick comb (a connective-tissue organ) appears to differ from their action on epithelial-tissue organs such as seminal vesicles and prostate.
