Potentiation of estradiol binding to human tissue proteins by unsaturated nonesterified fatty acids.

abstract：:We have recently reported that a subpopulation of galanin (GAL)-immunoreactive perikarya in the preoptic area near the organum vasculosum of the lamina terminalis (OVLT) has morphological characteristics similar to those of LHRH-containing neurons. In fact, both peptides are colocalized in those neurons in the male ra...
