The renal accumulation of alpha2u-globulin has been implicated in the tumorigenicity of many nongenotoxic chemicals to the kidney of the male rat. Several chemicals inducing renal tumors in the male rat were shown to bind to alpha2u-globulin. This binding impairs the renal degradation of alpha2u-glo
The rat alpha 2u-globulins are encoded by a multigene family whose 20-25 members are subjected to multihormonal regulation that is dependent upon the sex of the animal, the developmental stage and the tissue being examined. Using RT-PCR and diagnostic restriction analysis of the products, we have ex
The Hershberger assay has been proposed as a candidate screening test method for the detection of androgenic and anti-androgenic chemicals and is being validated presently under the test guideline programme of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). Rat α α α α α 2u -globul
