Cultures of aggregating fetal rat brain cells express p, 6, and K opioid receptors. The potent and longlasting opioid antagonist naltrexone was used to investigate whether different regulatory mechanisms are involved in the expression of the three receptor subtypes. In cultures treated for seven day
Acute 17β€-estradiol treatment had been shown to downregulate the 5-HT 1A receptor mRNA expression in limbic areas of the female rat brain. The aim of the present study was to determine the effects of chronic 17β€-estradiol treatment on 5-HT 1A receptor mRNA expression and 5-HT 1A receptor binding in
