The effects of testosterone and of hemin on the concentration of the mRNA of embryonic chick liver ALA synthase were investigated. Using cDNA-RNA liquid hybridization analyses, we determined that testosterone, when injected into the fluid surrounding chick embryos, caused a dose-dependent increase in the concentration of ALA synthase mRNA in liver. Similarly, addition of testosterone (5 micrograms/ml) or of 75 micrograms/ml of allylisopropylacetamide (AIA) into the medium of chick embryo hepatocytes maintained in culture caused an increase in the concentration of ALA synthase mRNA. Hemin (2 or 5 microM), when added to the culture medium, inhibited the elevations of ALA synthase mRNA concentration brought on by testosterone and by AIA.
