Sexual differentiation of vasopressin innervation of the brain: cell death versus phenotypic differentiation.

Endocrinology - 1 Sept 2008

de Vries Geert J, Jardon Michelle, Reza Mohammed, Rosen Greta J, Immerman Eleanor, Forger Nancy G

Abstract excerpt

In most vertebrates studied, males have more vasopressin (VP) cells in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis, or homologous vasotocin cells in nonmammalian species, than females. Previous research excluded differential cell birth and migration as likely mechanisms underlying this difference, leaving just differential cell death and phenotypic differentiation of existing cells. To differentiate between these...
