Abstract excerpt
The estrogen receptor (ER) subtypes, ERalpha and ERbeta, modulate numerous signaling cascades in the brain to result in a variety of cell fates including neuronal differentiation. We report here that 17beta-estradiol (E2) rapidly stimulates the autophosphorylation of alpha-Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent kinase II (alphaCaMKII) in immortalized NLT GnRH neurons, primary hippocampal neurons, and Cos7 cells...
