Application
Testosterone 3-(O-carboxymethyl)oxime: BSA-FITC has been used for flow cytometric assays in serum-free cell cultures2. It has also been used for fluorescence labeling experiments in L6 cells3.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Studies have reported that BSA-coupled testosterone can block the growth of LNCaP cells. Furthermore, it can activate Fas protein and cell death, as well as reduce the translocation, adhesion and incursion of iAR-negative, DU145 prostate cancer cells2.

The non-genomic actions of androgen-induced synaptic plasticity have been extensively studied. However, the underlying mechanisms remain controversial. We recently found that testosterone-fetal bovine serum albumin (T-BSA), a cell membrane-impermeable complex, led to a rapid increase in the postsynaptic density 95

Testosterone (T), the principal androgen, and its metabolite, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), are known to mediate their effects through binding to intracellular androgen receptors (iARs). In addition to their well-known genomic effects, androgens rapidly alter neuronal excitability through a non-genomic pathway mediated
