New tricks by an old dogma: mechanisms of the Organizational/Activational Hypothesis of steroid-mediated sexual differentiation of brain and behavior.

Hormones and behavior - 1 May 2009

McCarthy Margaret M, Wright Christopher L, Schwarz Jaclyn M

Abstract excerpt

The hormonal regulation of sexual behavior has been the topic of study for over 50 years and yet controversies persist regarding the importance of early versus late events and the identity of the critical neural and cellular substrates. We have taken a mechanistic approach toward the masculinizin...
