TLDR
The results suggest that the distribution of androgen- and estrogen receptor-containing neurons overlap considerably in nuclei which transmit chemosensory signals in the control of mating behavior in the Syrian hamster.About:

Male Sexual Behavior
TL;DR: Major areas controlling sexual motivation and performance in males include the mesolimbic dopamine (DA) system, the medial preoptic area (MPOA), the amygdala, and the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BST).

Mating and agonistic behavior produce different patterns of Fos immunolabeling in the male Syrian hamster brain
TL;DR: Results of this study demonstrate both similarities and differences in brain activation patterns following these two social behaviors and suggest that mating and agonistic behavior activate distinct neural circuits.

TL;DR: It is clear that the ER alpha plays a key role in the expression of masculine sexual behavior and in the regulation of androgen receptors in a neuronal cell population involved in the display of motivated behaviors.

Mechanisms underlying epigenetic effects of early social experience: The role of neuropeptides and steroids
TL;DR: It is proposed that social interactions during the neonatal period organize the subsequent expression of behavior by altering sensitivity to neuropeptides and steroids, potentially powerful mechanisms through which early social experience can mold subsequent social behaviors.

Distribution of androgen and estrogen receptor mRNA‐containing cells in the rat brain: An in situ hybridization study
TL;DR: AR and ER may modulate nonolfactory sensory information as well since labeled cells were found in regions involved in the central relay of somatosensory information, including the mesencephalic nucleus of the trigeminal nerve, the ventral thalamic nuclear group, and the dorsal horn of the spinal cord.

TL;DR: Two hours following intraperitoneal injection, estradiol‐H3 is concentrated by cells in a system of limbic and hypothalamic structures, which agrees with previous autoradiographic conclusions and with biochemical results from cell fractionation experiments.

Immunohistochemical Localization of the Androgen Receptor in Rat and Human Tissues
TL;DR: The results of these studies indicate that AR can be detected immunohistochemically in a variety of tissues and cell types using antipeptide polyclonal antibodies.

Immunochemical studies of estrogen receptors.
TL;DR: Fusion of splenic lymphocytes from Lewis rats, immunized with affinity-purified estrogen receptor from the cytosol of MCF-7 human breast cancer cells, with two different mouse myeloma lines, has provided 13 monoclonal hybridoma lines secreting antiestrophilin antibodies, each of which recognizes a different antigenic determinant in the human receptor molecule.

Distribution and regulation of aromatase activity in the rat hypothalamus and limbic system.
TL;DR: The results provide a quantitative profile of AA in specific hypothalamic and limbic nuclei of the rat brain as well as information on the control of AA within these discrete regions.
