The behavioral effectiveness of testosterone in both sexes and the ineffectiveness of estradiol in eliciting clasping is paralleled by autoradiographic localization of sex steroids in brain where the distribution of testosterone-concentrating, cells is the same for males and females, but different from ...

Although more males die by suicide due to the selection of higher-lethality methods, females are twice as likely to experience suicidal thoughts or engage in suicidal behavior [2, 3]. The menstrual cycle, characterized by monthly fluctuations in estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P4), may play ...
Elevated estradiol levels are correlated with male infertility. Causes of hyperestrogenism include diseases of the adrenal cortex, testis or medications affecting the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal axis. The aim of our study was to elucidate the effects of estradiol treatment on testicular cellular morpho...
The effects of ejaculation on female sexual invitations were examined in 6 pairs of adult rhesus monkeys of opposite sexes observed during 1 hr mating tests (552 tests), whereby each of 3 females was tested on alternate days with one of 2 male partners (6 males). Ovariectomized females were...
•Prepro-QRFP mRNA expression in the VMH/ARC is affected by estrous phase and HFD.•Ovariectomy and HFD intake increase prepro-QRFP mRNA levels in the VMH/ARC.•Estradiol benzoate administration decreases prepro-QRFP mRNA levels in the VMH/ARC.•Estradiol regulates the expression of QRFP...
N-acetylcysteine (NAC), an antioxidant and glutathione precursor, shows promise for neuroprotection in combination with hypothermia, mitigating post-HI neuroinflammation due to oxidative stress. As mechanisms of HI injury and cell death differ in males and females, sex differences must be considered in...
Incubation duration was longer in males than females at 26℃,but did not differ between the sexes at 28℃ and 30℃. Hatchlings from low temperatures were larger than those from high temperatures,and females were larger than males. The swimming capacity of hatchlings was not affected by either...
Subsequently, the mice obtained further sexual experience for a 3-day period during which they were co-housed with a female mouse primed with estrogen benzoate at doses of 10 and 5 μg of estradiol benzoate 48 and 24 h earlier, respectively; mice that did not mount and those that attacked...
Most behavioral research has focused on the interactions between cocaine and estradiol, but there has been recent interest in the effects of progesterone. Estradiol enhanced cocaine self-administration in gonadally intact rodents (Roberts et al, 1989; Hecht et al, 1999; Lynch et al, 2002) and ...
