Abstract excerpt
Estrogen, acting via estrogen receptor (ER)alpha, regulates serum gonadotropin levels and pituitary gonadotropin subunit expression. However, the cellular pathways mediating this regulation are unknown. ERalpha signals through classical estrogen response element (ERE)-dependent genomic as well as nonclassical ERE-independent genomic and nongenomic pathways. Using targeted mutagenesis in mice to disrupt ERalpha...
