Corticotropin-Releasing Factor Receptor Binding in the Amygdala Changes Across Puberty in a Sex-Specific Manner

Corticotropin-releasing factor receptors type 1 (CRF1) and type 2 (CRF2) have complementary roles in controlling the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. Because CRF receptors are expressed in sex steroid-sensitive areas of the forebrain, they may contribute to sex-specific patterns of stress...
