Estrogen plays important regulatory and protective roles in the central nervous system through estrogen receptor α mediation.Previous studies applied eukaryotic expression and lentiviral vectors carrying estrogen receptor α to clarify the underlying mechanisms.In the present study,an adenovirus vector expressing the mouse full estrogen receptor α gene was constructed to identify biological characteristics of estrogen receptor α recombinant adenovirus infecting nerve cells.Primary cultured mouse nerve cells were first infected with estrogen receptor α recombinant adenovirus at various multiplicities of infection,followed by 100 multiplicity of infection.Results showed overexpression of estrogen receptor α mRNA and protein in the infected nerve cells.Estrogen receptor α recombinant adenovirus at 100 multiplicity of infection successfully infected neurons and upregulated estrogen receptor α mRNA and protein expression.
