Using the dextran charcoal method, a specific steroid receptor for dexamethasone, but not 17 beta-estradiol or 17 alpha-methyltrienolone, was demonstrated in cytosol prepared from mid-gestation fetal calf growth cartilage. Zonal analysis of cytoplasmic receptor levels showed that tissue sections from
The purpose of this study was to test whether 17 beta-estradiol (E2) could alter neuronal activity or responsiveness to iontophoretically applied amino acid neurotransmitters in an area not reported to contain classical E2 receptors. Such a region is the cerebellum
Bone loss in postmenopausal women can be treated by hormonal substitution therapy. We investigated whether rapid bone losers (as opposed to nonrapid losers) respond sufficiently to estrogen treatment. A sample of 88 early postmenopausal women was followed up for a
Effects of estradiol hemisuccinate and diethylstilbestrol diphosphate on the cardiovascular system in male rats were examined in vivo and in vitro. In conscious rats, intravenously administered estradiol or diethylstilbestrol inhibited vascular responses to norepinephrine in a dose-dependent manner. Diethylstilbestrol in

The ability of estrogen to modulate mesolimbic dopamine (DA) was examined using in vivo voltammetry. Estrogen priming (5 micrograms, 48 h) of ovariectomized (ovx) female rats resulted in a slight decrease in K(+)-stimulated DA release measured in the nucleus accumbens:
