Estrogen receptors are direct regulators of transcription that function by binding to specific DNA sequences in promoters of target genes. The two cloned forms of estrogen receptors, ␣ and , are expressed in the central nervous system by different neuronal populations. Astrocytes in vitro are also

Estrogen regulates the synaptic plasticity and physiology of the hippocampus as well as learning behaviors that are mediated by the hippocampus. The density of dendritic spines and synapses, the number of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) binding sites, the levels of NMDA receptor subunit NR1 protein, mus
We evaluated the relationship among proliferation, death and migration of granule cells in lobules VI-VIII of vermis, in comparison with lobule III, during cerebellar development. To this aim, a single injection of cisplatin, i.e., a cytostatic agent that is known to induce death of proliferating gr
## GABA (␥-aminobutyric acid) is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system and plays an important role in neuronal physiology during ontogenesis. The distribution of the  1 -,  2/3 -, and ␥ 2 -subunit of the GABA A receptor in the rat retina was studied during
Dopamine, an important neuromodulator in the retina, controls the balance of rod cone photoreceptor activity and influences the activity of several interneurons. The postnatal development of dopaminergic neurons, visualized immunocytochemically, was compared to the development of dopamine D 1 recept
