These changes are comparable to those caused by the female sex hormone. The fact that both the female and the male hormones affect the genital tract of the female similarly is, I think, in accord with the results of recent biochemical work3,4. It is interesting to note that the ...
Female Sex Hormones R.S. Vardanyan, V.J. Hruby, in Synthesis of Essential Drugs, 2006 Publisher Summary Of the numerous hormones that regulate body function, two steroid hormones are extremely important: estradiol, a female sex hormone, and testosterone, a male sex hormone. Present in the bod...
hormoneestroneserotoninniacintryptophanIt is known that deaths attributable to pellagra, which is considered to be a disease caused by the disturbance of tryptophan metabolism, have been approximately two-fold higher in women than in men. We investigated the effects of the administration of female and...
The organ culture of the rat ventral prostate was chosen as a model to determine whether any of the estrogen effects in vivo on the prostate are direct and expressed at the hormone concentrations normally found in the male. During 2 weeks of culture, estradiol at the high concentration of 105...
Effects of chronic exposure to NP on male sexual behavior Olfactory preference We tested the ability of males to discriminate between male and female odors in olfactory preference tests using gonadally intact males vs sexually receptive females. The total time spent sniffing the two stimuli was equiv...
Cross-sex hormone treatment had no influence on body weight or body mass index (BMI) but significantly altered body-composition by increasing total fat mass and reducing total lean mass (p<0.001). As expected, induction of cross-sex hormone treatment resulted in a female hormonal milieu with a...
Interactive effects of growth hormone and oestrogen on vascular responses in hypophysectomised female rats Growth hormone (GH) and oestrogen (E(2)) are associated with beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system and it is therefore of great interest to study... G Helena,T Anna Wickman,B ...
Why would imbalanced hormone levels cause a male to be unable to reproduce. How does a male animal realize that the female is receptive to copulation? What is the effect of having low levels of testosterone in human beings? What indirect effects might increasing UVR have on anima...
males exhibit a progressive decline of sex hormones80, whereas females experience a sharp gonadal hormone falloff later in life81. Interestingly, we observed a significant change in the direction of the maturational trajectory of females around age 40. No such directional change was evident in males...
