ERα Stimulation Rapidly Modulates Excitatory Synapse Properties in Female Rat Nucleus Accumbens Core
Neuroendocrinology, 113(11), 1140–1153.
TL;DR:
Findings extend the understanding of the neuroendocrinology of the NAcc and implicate ERα as a primary target for future studies and provide evidence that activation of ERα is sufficient for inducing changes in mEPSC frequency and is a likely candidate underlying the estradiol-induced changes observed during the estrous cycle.

A Membrane G-Protein-Coupled Estrogen Receptor Is Necessary but Not Sufficient for Sex Differences in Zebra Finch Auditory Coding
ENDOCRINOLOGY, 159(3), 1360–1376.
