The effect of the male contraceptive agent Gossypol on human lymphocytes in vitro: traditional chromosome breakage, micronuclei, sister chromatid exchange, and cell kinetics. [PDF]
Journal of Medical Genetics, 1983 The male antifertility agent Gossypol did not affect the level of traditional chromosome breakage or number of micronuclei in 66-hour lymphocyte cultures at concentrations up to 40 micrograms/ml. It did increase the frequency of SCE slightly, although the inter-individual variation was greater than the increase resulting from Gossypol, and, even at the

The FASEB Journal, 2014 The non‐hormonal male contraceptive H2‐gamendazole (H2‐GMZ) is a lonidamine derivative that has been shown to accumulate in rat testes at levels about 10 times higher than in the liver and other organs. Given that H2‐GMZ is an organic anion with a molecular weight of more than 400 Da, it could interact with Organic Anion Transporting Polypeptides ...

Regenerating Rat Liver: Correlations Between Estrogen Receptor Localization and Deoxyribonucleic Acid Synthesis [PDF]
, 1984 Estrogen receptor activity was quantitated in the cytosol and nucleus of normal rat liver and in regenerating rat liver at several time intervals after 75% hepatectomy. Cytosolic estradiol binding in regenerating liver decreases at 12, 24, and 48 h after
