AN AUTORADIOGRAPHIC STUDY OF OESTRADIOL INCORPORATION IN THE BREAST TISSUE OF FEMALE RATS

Abstract
The localization of (6,7-3h) 17[beta]-estradiol in breast tissue of female rats has been studied using autoradiography. Selective accumulation of radioactivity was found in the epithelial lining of anini and ducts of the breast tissue. The labelling was much more extensive in the epithelial cells than in the stroma.
