I am excited to share pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40632653/. It shows that hormones regulate hippocampal sharp-wave ripples (SPW-Rs). 1) Removing gonads decreases SPW-Rs. Hormone replacement led to recovery. 2) SPW-Rs show sex differences. And there is more! Huge thanks to all authors!
Testosterone and 17β-estradiol regulate hippocampal area CA3 sharp waves in male and female rats - PubMed
Sharp wave-ripples (SPW-Rs) are critical to hippocampal function, and the same is true of gonadal steroids, but the interactions are unclear. We find that surgical removal of the gonads greatly reduce...
