RP3V kisspeptin neurons are an important component of the neural network regulating lordosis behavior.aMating specifically activated kisspeptin neurons in the RP3V of ovary intact female mice as determined by the percentage of Fos/Kp co-labeled cells. *P ≤ 0.05; unpairedttest;n = 3/5....
Alterations in metabolism, sleep patterns, body composition and hormone status are all key features of aging. While the hypothalamus is a well-conserved brain region that controls these homeostatic and survival-related behaviors, little is known about th

A total of 4 animals from the 2 day cohort was excluded based on: spinal cord bruise during laminectomy (n = 1; aged), confirmed under a dissection microscope; abnormal time versus force curve, indicating bone hit (n = 1; aged); incorrect spinal cord root dissection (n = ...

(Fig.S6b, h) in the ARC were significantly suppressed in 4-week-old male and female KiDKO mice. However, none of these parameters was affected in the AVPV of pubertal KiDKO females (Fig.3eand Fig.S6e). Finally, the number of GFP-labeled Kiss1 neurons (Fig.3c, f, i), andKiss1...
The preservation of germ cell sexual identity is essential for gametogenesis. Here we show that H3K9me3-mediated gene silencing is integral to female fate maintenance in Drosophila germ cells. Germ cell specific loss of the H3K9me3 pathway members, the H
Female rat reproductive tract across the hormonal cycle and plan for dissection of tissue. Reproductive tract physiology changes dramatically across the hormonal (estrous) cycle of the rat. The bicornate uterine horns are inflamed on the evening of proestrus (PM proestrus) during sexual receptivity. ...
