X-chromosome dosage affects male sexual behavior.
Sex differences in the brain and behavior are primarily attributed to dichotomous androgen exposure between males and females during neonatal development, as well as adult responses to gonadal hormones. Here we tested an alternative hypothesis and asked if sex chromosome complement influences male copulatory behavior, a standard behavior for studies of sexual differentiation. We used two mouse ...
متن کاملSex Chromosome Aneuploidy: Prospective Studies on Children
This two-volume publication contains the proceedings of a NATO Advanced Study Institute, held in April 1978. The material is organized in five sections. In the first section J. Bonner presents a historic review of chromatin research. The following section describes biophysical and chemical methods used in the study of isolated chromatin, such as electron microscopy, circular dichroism, X-ray di...
متن کاملEndomorphin-1, effects on male sexual behavior.
We examined the effect of endomorphin-1 (EM-1), an endogenous opioid peptide that binds selectively to the mu receptor, on male copulatory behavior in sexually vigorous Wistar rats. In the first experiment, four doses of EM-1 (1, 10, 50, and 100 muM) injected intracerebroventricularly produced a marked increase in ejaculation latency and interintromission interval and reduced the number of ejac...
متن کاملSperm aneuploidy and meiotic sex chromosome configurations in an infertile XYY male.
BACKGROUND There is little information regarding the behaviour of the extra Y chromosome during meiosis I in men with 47,XYY karyotypes and the segregation of the sex chromosomes in sperm. We applied immunofluorescent and FISH techniques to study the relationship between the sex chromosome configuration in meiotic germ cells and the segregation pattern in sperm, both isolated from semen samples...
متن کاملEvidence that sex chromosome genes affect sexual differentiation of female sexual behavior.
Female receptivity including the immobile hormone-dependent lordosis posture is essential for successful reproduction in rodents. It is well documented that lordosis is organized during the perinatal period when the actions of androgens decrease the males' ability to display this behavior in adulthood. Conversely the absence of androgens, and the presence of low levels of prepubertal estrogens,...
