Neurosteroids and brain sexual differentiation.

B A Schlinger1, K K Soma, S E London.   

Abstract

There is new evidence that the brain of developing songbirds can synthesize estradiol de novo. In males, this neurally derived estrogen might masculinize a connection within the neural song system. These results challenge traditional concepts about mechanisms of brain sexual differentiation and reveal a significant function for neurosteroids.
