abstract：:Estrogen not only modulates nigrostriatal function but also developmental processes in the striatum. Recently, we have demonstrated the presence of the estrogen-synthesizing enzyme aromatase in the developing mouse striatum. This study is concerned with the expression of estrogen receptor-alpha/beta (ER) mRNA in the d...
