Estrogen receptor α splice variant TADDI in the human supraoptic nucleus: an effect on neuronal size and changes in pneumonia.
BACKGROUND: Estrogens mediate various effects in the brain not only via classical estrogen receptors (ERs) but also through their splice variants. We showed earlier that the ERα splice variant TADDI is abundantly expressed in the human hypothalamic supraoptic nucleus (SON). METHODS: In the present study we ai.....
