Age-associated gene expression changes in the arcuate nucleus of male rhesus macaques.

abstract：:In contrast to the classical model describing the synthesis of androgens and estrogens as restricted to somatic cells, a previous study demonstrated that Xenopus laevis oocytes participate in androgen synthesis. The objective of our study was to determine whether Xenopus oocytes are also involved in estrogen synthesis...
