Gonadotropin-Inhibitory Hormone Plays Roles in Stress-Induced Reproductive Dysfunction
Physical and psychological stressors suppress hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis activity and sexual behavior and consequently induce reproductive dysfunction. Recently, it has been shown that gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH), also called RFamide-related peptide 3 (RFRP) in mammals, which is a potent inhibitory regulator of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and gonadotropin, is invol...
متن کاملExperimentally induced stress decreases ideal female reproductive timing.
Previous correlational research shows that childhood adversity is associated with earlier age of reproduction in humans and other species. Such studies, however, cannot show that stressful conditions cause earlier reproduction. Using the cold-pressor task, we built on previous work to test the idea that acute stress influences human reproductive and marital ideals, and that individual stress re...
متن کاملProtective effect of Petroselinum crispum extract in abortion using prostadin-induced renal dysfunction in female rats
Objective: Present study investigated the effects of parsley extract on pregnant rat kidneys which have undergone clinical abortion using prostaglandins. The renal protective effect of parsley extract was evaluated in pregnant rats which had an abortion. Parsley was used due to its antioxidant properties. Materials and Methods: Fifty-four female rats were divided in 9 groups of 6: control preg...
متن کاملEffects of reproductive condition and dominance rank on cortisol responsiveness to stress in free-ranging female rhesus macaques.
The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis modulates individuals' physiological responses to social stress, which is an inevitable aspect of the daily lives of group-living animals. Previous nonhuman primate studies have reported that sex, age, rank, and reproductive condition influence cortisol levels under stressful conditions. In this study we investigated cortisol responses to stress amo...
متن کاملReproductive dysfunction in female rats with renovascular hypertension.
BACKGROUND Hypertension is a major public health epidemic that is highly associated with sexual dysfunction in both men and women. Despite its high prevalence, clinical and animal literature on the underlying mechanisms of sexual dysfunction in hypertensive women is remarkably limited. METHODS Using a well-established rodent model of renovascular hypertension-the 2-kidney, 1-clip (2K1C) Goldb...
