TI  - Immunocytochemical localization of androgen receptor in the comb, uropygial 
      gland, testis, and epididymis in the domestic chicken.
PG  - 76-82
AB  - Nuclear, but not cytoplasmic androgen receptors (AR), were localized 
      immunocytochemically in the comb, uropygial (preen) gland, testis, and epididymis 
      of juvenile and adult cockerels. Androgen receptor immunoreactivity (AR-ir) was 
      seen in the comb, in the stratum germinativum of the epidermis and in fibromucoid 
      cells in the dermis in juvenile and adult cockerels. AR-ir was observed in the 
      glandular epithelial (sebum-producing) cells lining the peripheral and middle 
      sections of the tubules in the uropygial gland. AR-ir was not detected in 
      innermost part of the tubules which conduct the sebum to the surface of the skin. 
      AR-ir labeling was not observed in the uropygial gland of juveniles. In the 
      testis, AR-ir was seen in the Leydig cells, in adults but not juveniles. The 
      epithelial cells lining the tubules in the epididymis contained AR-ir in both 
      juveniles and adults.
