Examination of the morphology in the submandibular salivary gland, adrenal gland and renal cortex of androgen-insensitive, t f m / Y mutant mice has revealed predominantly female characteristics. A sexual dimorphism in alkaline-phosphatase (AP) activity was seen in the submandibular salivary gland of this s t r a i n of mice; the AP activity in the mutants was similar to females. There was no dimorphism in renal AP activity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
