Steroid receptor coactivator 2 modulates steroid‐dependent male sexual behavior and neuroplasticity in Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica)

Abstract: Steroid receptor coactivators are necessary for efficient transcriptional regulation by ligand-bound nuclear receptors, including estrogen and androgen receptors. SRC-2 modulates estrogen- and progesterone-dependent sexual behavior in female rats but its implication in the control of male sexual behavior has not been studied to our knowledge. We cloned and sequenced the complete quail SRC-2 transcript and showed by semi-quantitative PCR that SRC-2 expression is nearly ubiquitous, with high levels of expression… Show more

“…). We used chimeric oligodeoxynucleotide consisting of DNA and LNA (Charlier et al ., , ; Niessen et al ., ; Eurogentec S.A., Seraing, Belgium). The sequence for the 19‐mer AS spanning the putative start codon of the quail c‐fos was 5′‐TGGTacatcatgtcgGCTG‐3′ (the monomers are represented by uppercase letters and DNA monomers by lowercase letters), and the scrambled control oligodeoxynucleotide was 5′‐GTTGaacttcatgcgCGGT‐3′.…”

“…In the quail brain, SRC‐1 is expressed in the steroid sensitive areas, including the POM and bed nucleus of stria terminalis . Similar to SRC‐1, quail POM expresses SRC‐2 protein in a level that is similar in males and females .…”

“…In addition, several coactivators, other than SRC-1, are very likely part of the physiological and behavioral response to T. Notably, SRC-1 is a member of the SRC family encompassing two other coactivators [104]. Its closely related member, SRC-2, shows a significant homology with SRC-1 and more importantly, exhibits the same functional domains [6, 70]. In vitro and in vivo studies indicate that SRC-2 interacts with numerous nuclear receptors, including ER and androgen receptors (AR), and dramatically enhances the transcriptional activity of these steroid receptors [51, 96, 103].…”

“…In vitro and in vivo studies indicate that SRC-2 interacts with numerous nuclear receptors, including ER and androgen receptors (AR), and dramatically enhances the transcriptional activity of these steroid receptors [51, 96, 103]. In addition, the neuroanatomical pattern of SRC-2 expression seems to match the pattern of SRC-1 expression in numerous brain regions in quail, including the POM [70], similarly to what was described in rodents [5]. Not surprisingly then, the functions of SRC-1 and -2 in the brain seem to be redundant and one coactivator seems to easily replace the other [71, 102].…”
