Radiolabelled methyltrienolone, dihydrotestosterone and estradiol were used as ligands to identify and quantify androgen and estrogen receptors in freshly dispersed cells from the canine prostate. Soluble extracts (cytosols) were obtained from secretory and non-secretory epithelial cells separated on the basis of their density in Percoll gradients. For both cell types, as well as for the whole prostate, Scatchard plot analyses were linear and showed a single class of high affinity binding sites: Kd values of 3.6 +/- 2.2 X 10(-9) M and 3.0 +/- 1.2 X 10(-10) M were measured for the androgen and estrogen receptors, respectively. The number of binding sites for the cytosolic androgen receptor, expressed per mg of protein or per mg of DNA, was 2.4- to 6.7-fold higher in the non-secretory cells compared to the secretory cells. However, these two cell types contained a similar number of specific sites for the estrogens. The specificities of the androgen and estrogen receptors were shown to be identical for the two cell types: the binding of [3H]R1881 was strongly inhibited by unlabelled R1881, 5 alpha-androstane-3 alpha, 17 beta-diol and dihydrotestosterone, while 5 alpha-androstane-3 beta, 17 beta-diol, estradiol and estrone did not displace bound R1881. The addition of triamcinolone acetonide did not alter the binding of R1881 in extracts of either cell type or in the whole prostate. The binding of [3H]estradiol to the estrogen receptor was highly specific since a strong displacement was only observed with estradiol (83%).
