Progesterone withdrawal-evoked plasticity of neural function in the female periaqueductal grey matter

Cyclical changes in production of neuroactive steroids during the oestrous cycle induce significant changes in GABA(A) receptor expression in female rats. In the periaqueductal grey (PAG) matter, upregulation of alpha4beta1delta GABA(A) receptors occurs as progesterone levels fall during late dioest...
