Abstract excerpt
Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) promoter activity is induced by 17beta-estradiol (E(2)) in PC12 cells expressing estradiol receptor-alpha (ERalpha) requiring a cAMP/calcium response element (CRE/CaRE) at -45. To examine whether membrane-initiated estradiol signaling is underlying this induction, cells co-transfected with TH reporter construct and ERalpha expression vector were exposed to membrane-impermeant estradiol...
