Abstract

The relationship between nuclear binding of the receptor-estrogen complex (R-E) and estrogenic responses was examined. Nuclear-bound R-E was measured by the [3H] estradiol exchange assay, which permits the quantification of R-E as a function of either endogenous or non labeled estrogen. The quantity of nuclear R-E fluctuated as a function of blood levels of estrogen during the estrous cycle in the rat. This indicates that the accumulation of the R-E complex by the nucleus of uterine cells may be of physiologic significance and under the control of endogenous estrogen.
