The binding of estrogen and estrogen antagonists to the estrogen receptor

open access: yesArchives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1992
The model of the estrogen receptor as a dimer of identical, interacting subunits and data obtained by Sasson and Notides (1988, Mol. Endocrinol. 2, 307-312) were used to find the standard free energy changes that describe the binding of estradiol and 4-hydroxytamoxifen to the estrogen receptor.

Weak if any effect of estrogen on spatial memory in rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In a number of species, males appear to have spatial abilities that are superior to those of females. The favored explanation for this cognitive difference is hormonal: higher testosterone levels in males than in females.
