Male steroid hormones and female preference for male body odor
It has been suggested that human scent works as a signal in mate selection, but the empirical evidence is scarce. Here, we examined whether women’s olfactory preferences for a man’s scent could be correlated with his testosterone, estradiol, or cortisol concentrations, and whether these preferences change along with the menstrual cycle. In line with previous studies, women in their most fertile...
متن کاملGonadal morphology and sex hormones in male and female Wistar rats after long-term lamotrigine treatment
Drug-induced disturbances in reproductive hormones and gonadal morphology have been observed both in patients with epilepsy and in non-epileptic animals. Less is known about the influence of newer antiepileptic drugs including lamotrigine on reproduction. Lamotrigine is now increasingly used both in epilepsy and psychiatric disorders. Sixty-five Wistar rats were fed by gastric tube either 5 mg ...
متن کاملDifferential Effects of Male and Female Gonadal Hormones on the Intrathymic T cell Maturation
The study was undertaken to further elucidate a role of gonadal hormones in maintenance of normal thymocyte maturation and sexual dimorphism in the intrathymic T-cell development. Rats of both sexes were gonadectomized or sham-gonadectomized (controls) at age of 2 and 6 months, and 30 days later the thymus size, cellularity and thymocyte composition were evaluated. In both control and gonadecto...
متن کاملGonadal hormones modulate deoxycorticosterone-salt hypertension in male and female rats.
We have shown previously that, in rats with deoxycorticosterone (DOC)-salt hypertension, arterial blood pressure rises more rapidly and reaches a higher level in male than in female rats and that the course of the hypertension was ameliorated by gonadectomy in male rats and exacerbated by gonadectomy in female rats. The present investigation was undertaken to examine the role of the gonadal ste...
متن کاملEffects of acute restraint stress on sperm motility and secretion of pituitary, adrenocortical and gonadal hormones in adult male rats.
The effects of acute restraint stress on sperm motility and reproductive endocrinology were investigated in adult rats. Sperm motility was determined by computer-assisted sperm analysis. Acute restraint stress reduced sperm motility starting after 30 min, and the sperm motility parameters, percentage of motile spermatozoa (%), straight-line velocity, curvilinear velocity, deviation of the sperm...
