Influence of the genotype of males on pregnancy-block in inbred mice.
نویسنده
چکیده
Variations in the incidence of pregnancy-block (Bruce effect) dependent on the genotype of the male were recorded in female mice belonging to two inbred strains. CBA females invariably responded with a high rate of return of oestrus irrespective of the blocking agent, KE and CBA males, or spayed and masculinized females belonging to these two strains. By contrast, KE females only react strongly to CBA males and masculinized CBA females. Their response to males of their own strain is insignificant.

Genotype-dependent modification of Sarcoma 37 growth in castrated mice.
Sarcoma 37 cells grew more rapidly in castrated male mice than in controls of the same genotype; however, this effect of castration was dependent on the host genotype. Among inbred YS/Wf mice, tumor weight was increased only in castrated yellow Ay/a males and not in the comparable black a/a males. In contrast, mean tumor weight was increased in both yellow Avy/a and black a/a castrated males of...
متن کاملSex differences in supraspinal morphine analgesia are dependent on genotype.
Several variables have been reported to affect the expression of sex differences in the analgesic potency of morphine. Although the effect of genetic background on morphine analgesia has been well documented, the relevance of genotype to sex differences in morphine analgesia has rarely been considered. The present study investigated morphine dose-response relationships in male and female mice o...
متن کاملEarly maternal investment in mice: no evidence for compatible-genes sexual selection despite hybrid vigor.
Confronting a recently mated female with a strange male can induce a pregnancy block ('Bruce effect'). The physiology of this effect is well studied, but its functional significance is still not fully understood. The 'anticipated infanticide hypothesis' suggests that the pregnancy block serves to avoid the cost of embryogenesis and giving birth to offspring that are likely to be killed by a new...
متن کاملLiver Oxidative Stress after Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury is Leukocyte Dependent in Inbred Mice
Objective(s) There are some reports in recent years indicating that renal ischemia - reperfusion (IR) induces deleterious changes in remote organs such as liver. The aim of this study was to investigate whether leukocytes have a role on the induction of oxidative stress in liver after renal IR. Materials and Methods Inbred mice in IR donor group were subjected to renal IR injury. In sham don...

This study was conducted to evaluate the responses of Iranian commercial genotypes of maize (hybrids and their inbred lines) to callus induction and plant regeneration, using mature embryos. Twenty five genotypes comprising of 12 inbred lines, 11 single cross hybrids, 1 double cross hybrid and 1 composite cultivar were used. Mature embryos of the genotypes were plated on MS and N6 media. Callus...
