The direct effect of estradiol (E 2) on the hepatocytes of mature male rats has been examined by measuring the changes in the unusual estrogen-binding protein (UEBP) content and parallel measuring the level of liver estrogen receptors (ER). The content of UEBP ( N UEBP) and ER ( N ER) in the liver w...
