Testosterone induced a rapid (< 1 min) stimulation of endocytosis, amino acid and hexose transport, measured by the temperature-sensitive uptake of HRP, 14 C-AIB and 3 H-DG, in mouse kidney cortex slices. The hormonal increment in uptake persisted for at least 60–120 min, showed time-, energy-, and Na+-dependence, and varied with substrate and testosterone concentration. Testosterone was maximally effective at 10− 8 to 10− 7 M. Peroxidase histochemistry indicated that the hormonal increase in HRP uptake is restricted to proximal tubules. Testosterone was more effective than DHT, whereas cyproterone acetate, androsterone and dexamethasone had little or no stimulating effect on this uptake. Kidney slices from androgen-insensitive tfm Y mice did not respond to testosterone. The rapid increase in endocytosis, amino acid and hexose transport may represent a direct, receptor-mediated response of the surface membrane of target cells to testosterone.
