Abstract excerpt
Earlier reports have suggested that the epididymis secretes RNA, and that the amount of these secretions varies among T/t6, T/t12 and C57BR mice. In this report, the epididymal perfusate, the total uptake and incorporation of 5-3H-uridine into the epididymis and testicle were examined. Mice examined were T/t6 and +/+ (B6D2F1) and their F1 hybrids, and T/t12 and +/+ (Swiss Webster) and their F1 hybrids. No...
