research Androgen receptor in rat liver: Characterization and separation from a male-specific estrogen-binding protein
Male rats have androgen receptors in their liver, which are different from proteins that bind estrogen.
research Applications of steroid drugs entrapped in cyclodextrins
Cyclodextrins improve how steroid drugs work and are used in marketed medications and environmental applications.
research Estrogen-Dependent Ontogeny of Sex Differences in Somatostatin Neurons of the Hypothalamic Periventricular Nucleus*
