Genomic and neural analysis of the estradiol-synthetic pathway in the zebra finch
BACKGROUND: Steroids are small molecule hormones derived from cholesterol. Steroids affect many tissues, including the brain. In the zebra finch, estrogenic steroids are particularly interesting because they masculinize the neural circuit that controls singing and their synthesis in the brain is mod...
