Cellular localization of estrogen receptors on neurones in various regions of cultured rat CNS: coexistence with cholinergic and galanin receptors

Abstract: Autoradiographic studies have shown that many neurones in explant cultures of rat neocortex, hippocampus, preoptic area and spinal cord express binding sites for [3H]-estradiol which are distributed over the cell bodies and primary processes. By means of immunohistochemistry, it was observed that neurones were labelled by monoclonal antibodies against estrogen alpha-receptors and a polyclonal antibody against estrogen beta-receptors. Immunoreactivity was distributed over the soma and primary processes of the c… Show more

“…A coexistence of ER␣, ER␤, and cholinergic, muscarinic, or nicotinic sites occurs in many neurons of the neocortex and hippocampus (387). Autoradiography and immunohistochemistry also illustrate colocalization of ER with receptors for the neuropeptide galanin (387).…”

“…Immunohistochemistry using selective antibodies against ER␣ and ER␤ reveal colocalization of ER␣ and ER␤ in approximately half of the neurons in cultures from neocortex and hippocampus (387). However, in the POA and spinal cord, relatively little double-staining is observed.…”

“…3 H]estradiol in females and only 20% in males (Hosli and Hosli, 1999). This difference could account perhaps for the sprouting response in female but not in male cultures, but it will require additional work to elucidate the role of ERs in cholinergic neurite outgrowth.…”

“…This decrease could be blocked by an antiprogestin. Furthermore, progesterone downregulates ERs which are widely distributed in the hip- pocampus Hösli and Hösli, 1999;Gundlah et al, 2000;Hart et al, 2001;Shughrue and Merchenthaler, 2001;Wehrenberg et al, 2001;Rune et al, 2002). Along this line, treatment of ovariectomized rats with estradiol, which results in an increase in spines on apical dendrites of CA1 pyramidal cells (for review, see Segal and Murphy, 2001;McEwen, 2002), does not prove direct effects of exogenously applied estradiol on spine or synapse formation.…”
