Estradiol-Concentrating Neurons: Topography in the Hypothalamus by Dry-Mount Autoradiography
Abstract
Serial section autoradiograms were prepared of different planes of the hypothalamus and diencephalon of immature female, immature male, and ovariectomized mature rats injected with 6,7- 3 H-estradiol-17 β. Known causes of diffusion and redistribution of the label, such as fixation, embedding, and thawing, were eliminated by the use of an autoradiographic technique based on the dry-mounting of freeze-dried sections. Neurons that concentrate estradiol exist in distinct and definable anatomical areas that are independent of the sex and hormonal state of the animals. Distribution of these neurons follows known terminations of the stria terminalis, which supports the concept of an endocrine amygdaloid-hypothalamic-hypophysial axis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
