Sex and estrogen receptor β have modest effects on gene expression in the mouse brain posterior cortex
2020-08-07
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Introduction</h4> Sex differences in brain cortical function affect cognition, behavior, and susceptibility to neural diseases, but the molecular basis of sexual dimorphism in cortical function is still largely unknown. Estrogen and estrogen receptors (ERs), specifically ERβ, the most abundant ER in the cortex, may play a role in determining sex differences in gene expression, which could underlie functional...
