Effect of oestradiol (E2) on Ers2 (A) and Ers1 (C) levels or dihydrotestosterone (DHT) on Ers2 (B) and Ar (D) levels in amygdala neuronal cultures of FCG mouse model. E2 and DHT treatments increased Ers2 levels in XX cultures but not in XY cultures. Hormonal treatments did not affect Esr1 and Ar among genotypes. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, #p < 0.001 (LSD Fisher). Bars indicate mean + SEM. n = 4–6 independent cultures for each genotype and hormone treatment. Embryos were obtained from 5 pregnant mothers.
