Regulation of Trio Splice Variants by 17Β-Estradiol and 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin
The anteroventral periventricular nucleus (AVPV) is a sexually dimorphic preoptic structure that is nearly three times larger in the female rat. Estradiol (E2) exposure during development decreases AVPV volume through apoptosis, a process which normally occurs preferentially in male. 2,3,7,8-tetrach...
