Immunolocalization of Estrogen Receptor Alpha in Adult Female Rat Hippocampus

The present study was planned to demonstrate the detailed immunoreactive (IR) distribution pattern of estrogen receptors (ER) in hippocampus of 15 female rats, adult, female Wistar rats in estrous phase. 30 µm thick setions of hippocampal region fixed (4% buffered paraformaldehyde) were obtained wit...
