Postnatal ontogeny of hippocampal expression of the mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid receptors in the common marmoset monkey

Abstract excerpt

The mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) and glucocorticoid receptor (GR) are nuclear transcription factors that mediate many of the basal and stress functions and effects of the corticosteroid hormones, including those related to brain development. Despite this, relatively little is known about the postnatal ontogeny of MR and GR gene and protein expression in the central nervous system, and this is particularly true...
