[Incorporation of androgens at the time of cell differentiation of the prostatic epithelium in the rat].
The appearance of androgen binding sites and acid phosphatase and esterase activities in the rat prostatic epithelium during the normal development was studied by means of steroid autoradiography and enzyme histochemistry. The incorporation of androgen into the prostatic epithelium began immediately before the lumen formation in the prostatic buds and the onset of their functional differentiation.
