A novel pathway for progestin receptor activation that influences both neuronal response and behavior in female rats
Ovarian steroid hormones influence both behavior and physiology in a variety of species by binding to intracellular steroid receptors. Recent studies suggest that steroid receptors (e.g., estrogen and progestin receptors) may also be activated in the absence of steroid. Infusion of dopamine agonists...
