After cultivation of dissociated rat testicular tissues, H-Y antigen is detectable in the medium; this is not the case if nongonadal male tissues are incubated. Release of H-Y antigen by testis cells is inhibited by the addition of cycloheximide. All tissues still type H-Y positive after culture. It
Various cell types of the rat testis during pubescence, including germ, Sertoli, and Leydig cells, were partially enriched. The fractions were tested for the presence, binding, and secretion of H-Y antigen. The main results are: Immature germ cells are H-Y antigen-negative until the late diploid sta
Anti-H-Y antiserum is generally obtained from female inbred mice or rats that have been hyperimmunized with syngeneic male cells. The specificity of such antiserum is defined by its reactivity for male but not female cells. A number of conventional serological assays have been used to measure that r
