2014, Progress in NeurobiologyCitation Excerpt :The rise in circulating estradiol between diestrus and proestrus, or the treatment of ovariectomized female rats with estrogen, were shown to induce PR in hypothalamic neurons (McGinnis et al., 1981a; Moguilewsky and Raynaud, 1979a; Romano et al., 1989; Scott et al., 2002). Double-label immunocytochemistry revealed that virtually all PR-positive hypothalamic neurons contain ER-immunoreactivity (Blaustein and Turcotte, 1989; Warembourg et al., 1989). The induction of hypothalamic PR by estrogen was then shown to be required for the facilitation of the lordosis response by progesterone.
Role of estrogen receptor α and β in the induction of progesterone receptors in hypothalamic ventromedial neurons
2013, NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :There is the general belief that nuclear estrogen receptors (ERs) mediate most of the actions of estrogens in the VMNvl. Neurons in the VMNvl express ERs of both subtypes (α and β) and PRs (Warembourg et al., 1989). Although the ERα largely predominates, some of the VMNvl neurons express the ERβ or co-express both receptor subtypes (Shughrue et al., 1998; Shughrue and Merchenthaler, 2001).
