Figure 6. Comparisons of relative gonadal SexHR gene expression between male and female of young, middle-aged and old mice. Left panels: ERα gene expression between male and female of young, middle-aged and old mice. Middle-left panels: ERβ gene expression between male and female of young, middle-aged and old mice. Middle-right panels: AR gene expression between male and female of young, middle-aged and old mice. Right panels: PR gene expression between male and female of young, middle-aged and old mice. ERα: estrogen receptor α, ERβ: estrogen receptor β, AR: androgen receptor, and PR: progesterone receptor. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001.
