Neurons from Fetal Rat Brains Contain Functional Luteinizing Hormone/Chorionic Gonadotropin Receptors1

1 May 1997

Abstract excerpt

Adult and neonatal rat brains contain functional LH/hCG receptors. These findings have led us to hypothesize that the fetal rat brain may also contain these receptors. To test this hypothesis, we isolated neurons from 19-day-old fetal rat brains and cultured them in chemically defined serum-free medium. The reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction amplified an expected 256-base pair size LH/hCG receptor...
