Abstract：
:Sexual behavior in female rats depends on the action of estradiol on estrogen receptors (ERs) found in particular brain regions. While hormonal regulation of female sexual behavior requires ERalpha, the possible functions of ERbeta remain to be clarified. Mating stimulation has several behavioral and physiological consequences and induces Fos expression in many brain areas involved in the regulation of reproductive behavior and physiology. In addition, some cells in which mating induces Fos expression coexpress ERalpha. To determine whether cells in which Fos is induced by a particular mating stimulus coexpress ERalpha, ERbeta, or both, we used a triple-label immunofluorescent technique to visualize ERalpha-, ERbeta-, and mating-induced Fos-immunoreactivity (Fos-ir) in neurons in which mating stimulation reliably increases Fos expression. Ovariectomized, hormone-primed rats were either unmated, received 15 mounts, or received 15 intromissions. In the rostral medial preoptic area, Fos-ir was induced by mounts alone primarily in cells coexpressing ERalpha-ir, while Fos-ir was induced by intromissions mainly in cells coexpressing both ERalpha-ir and ERbeta-ir (ERalpha/ERbeta-ir). In the dorsal part of the posterodorsal medial amygdala, Fos-ir was induced by intromissions in cells coexpressing ERalpha-ir and ERalpha/ERbeta-ir. However, in the ventral part of the posterodorsal medial amygdala, Fos-ir was induced by intromissions primarily in cells coexpressing only ERbeta-ir. These data suggest that qualitatively different sexual stimuli may be integrated through distinct ER-containing circuits in the rostral medial preoptic area and posterodorsal medial amygdala. The diversity in coexpression of type of ER in cells in different brain areas after various mating stimuli suggests a role for both ERalpha and ERbeta in the integration of hormonal information and information related to mating stimuli.
