Rapid action of estradiol in primate GnRH neurons: The role of estrogen receptor alpha and estrogen receptor beta

Published: Feb 1, 2011
Abstract
Estrogens play a pivotal role in the control of female reproductive function. Recent studies using primate GnRH neurons derived from embryonic nasal placode indicate that 17β-estradiol (E(2)) causes a rapid stimulatory action. E(2) (1nM) stimulates firing activity and intracellular calcium ([Ca(2+)](i)) oscillations of primate GnRH neurons within a few min. E(2) also stimulates GnRH release within 10min. However, the classical estrogen...
