Identification of Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin in the Human Hypothalamus [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroendocrinology, 2005
Gonadal steroids are known to influence hypothalamic functions through both genomic and non-genomic pathways. Sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) may act by a non-genomic mechanism independent of classical steroid receptors. Here we describe the immunocytochemical mapping of SHBG-containing neurons and nerve fibers in the human hypothalamus and ...
