Seasonal Changes of Androgen Receptor, Estrogen Receptors and Aromatase Expression in the Medial Preoptic Area of the Wild Male Ground Squirrels (Citellus Dauricus Brandt)

The wild ground squirrel is a typical seasonal breeder. In this study, using RT-PCR, western blot and immunohistochemistry, we investigated the mRNA and protein expressions of androgen receptor (AR), estrogen receptors a and β (ERα and ERβ) and aromatase cytochrome P450 (P450arom) in the medial preo...
