Sex- and brain region-specific patterns of gene expression associated with socially-mediated puberty in a eusocial mammal.
The social environment can alter pubertal timing through neuroendocrine mechanisms that are not fully understood; it is thought that stress hormones (e.g., glucocorticoids or corticotropin-releasing hormone) influence the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis to inhibit puberty.
