Brain-derived estrogens facilitate male-typical behaviors by potentiating androgen receptor signaling in medaka
2024-02-16
Abstract excerpt
In rodents, estrogens aromatized from androgens in the brain are essential for the development of male-typical behaviors. In many other vertebrates including humans and teleost fish, however, androgens facilitate these behaviors directly via the androgen receptor without aromatization into estrogens. Here we report that mutagenesis-derived male medaka fish lacking Cyp19a1b (a subtype of aromatase predominantly exp...
