Nuclear androgen receptor regulates testes organization and oocyte maturation in zebrafish
2017-07-05
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Androgens act through the nuclear androgen receptor (AR) to regulate gonad differentiation and development. In mice, AR is required for spermatogenesis, testis development and formation of external genitalia in males and oocyte maturation in females. However, the extent to which these phenotypes are conserved in nonmammalian vertebrates is not well understood, because mutations in AR have not be...
