Estrogens play important roles in the brain, acting through two receptor types, ER␣ and ER, both recognized as transcription factors. In this study, we investigated the ER mRNA and protein expression in the male and female rat brain, focusing on the hippocampus, and comparing with well-known ER␣ e
Gonadal steroids exert a powerful regulatory influence upon the functioning of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons despite the apparent absence of gonadal steroid receptors in these cells. By using retrograde-tracing techniques combined with dual-labeling immunocytochemistry, we show here
