Abstract excerpt
Glial erbB-1 and erbB-4 receptors are key components of the process by which neuroendocrine glial cells control LHRH secretion and the onset of female puberty. We now provide evidence that these two signaling systems work in a coordinated fashion to control reproductive function. To generate animals carrying functionally impaired erbB-1 and erbB-4 receptors, we crossed Waved 2 (Wa-2+/+) mice harboring a point...
