pubmed:abstractText |
Spontaneous single-unit activity was studied in the preoptic region of rat brain slices. Similar unit frequencies were recorded during the estrous cycle and for all ovariectomized (OVX) rats (median frequencies between 0.8 and 2.0 Hz). Higher frequencies were recorded in persistent estrus (PE) (median 3.5 Hz) and in males (median 3.4 Hz), P vs estrus less than 0.001. The mean percentage of tracks with units was low at estrus (15%), at diestrus (18%), in OVX rats (16%) and male rats (22%), and was significantly increased in metestrus (36%) and proestrus (33%) (P vs estrus less than 0.01) and in OVX rats after estrogen treatment (P less than 0.05 to P less than 0.01). It is suggested that the increased number of units found in OVX rats after estrogen treatment and in PE rats are both effects of prolonged elevated levels of estrogen in the brain.
