著者们描述了一种组织化学方法来测定人类前列腺组织中的雌、雄激素受体。技术的基础方法是使睾丸酮和雌二醇跟牛的血清白蛋白相结合,再与萤光素起作用,将前列腺的冰冻切片与标志了的睾丸酮或雌二醇孵育2小时后,用入射性紫外线显微镜检查。阳性标本显示为明亮的萤光细胞。检查了18例前列腺肥大和7例前列腺癌的组织标本。在前列腺肥大,受体均匀地分布着,初期出现在上 The authors describe a histochemical method to determine the estrogen and androgen receptors in human prostate tissue. The basic method of the technique is to combine testosterone and estradiol with bovine serum albumin and then react with luciferin. After the frozen section of the prostate is incubated with the marked testosterone or estradiol for 2 hours, the incident light is used. UV microscopy examination. Positive specimens are shown as bright fluorescent cells. Eighteen specimens of prostate enlargement and seven cases of prostate cancer were examined. In prostate hypertrophy, the receptors are evenly distributed, appearing early on.
