Abstract	The distribution of gonadal steroid (estrogen, progesterone) receptors in the brain of the adult female mink was mapped by immunocytochemistry. Using a monoclonal rat antibody raised against human estrogen receptor (ER), the most dense collections of ER-immunoreactive (IR) cells were found in the preoptic/anterior hypothalamic area, the mediobasal hypothalamus (arcuate and ventromedial nuclei), and the limbic nuclei (amygdala, bed nucleus of the stria terminalis, lateral septum). Immunoreactivity was mainly observed in the cell nucleus and a marked heterogeneity of staining appeared from one region to another. A monoclonal mouse antibody raised against rabbit uterine progesterone receptor (PR) was used to identify the PR-IR cells in the preoptic/anterior hypothalamic area and the mediobasal hypothalamus (arcuate and ventromedial nuclei). This study also focused on the relationship between cells containing sex-steroid receptors and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons on the same sections of the mink brain using a sequential double-staining immunocytochemistry procedure. Although preoptic and hypothalamic GnRH neurons were frequently in close proximity to perikarya containing ER or PR, they did not themselves possess receptor immunoreactivity. The present study provides neuroanatomical evidence that GnRH cells are not the major direct targets for gonadal steroids and confirms for the first time in mustelids the results previously obtained in other mammalian species.
