Abstract:: These studies examined the role of perinatal androgen in the development of neuroendocrine and behavioral characteristics of gray-tailed voles, Microtus canicaudus. When mature, females exhibited alternating vaginal smear patterns or persistent vaginal cornification; estrogen and progesterone concentrations were not correlated with vaginal smear patterns. Corpora lutea were not observed in...

Abstract:: In the wild, when an animal is exposed to predators or harsh conditions, the stress response is often associated with fleeing behaviors, which are seen as increased locomotor behavior. Handling-stress procedures and intracerebroventricular (icy) injection of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) have both been shown to cause an increase in locomotor activity...

Creator:: Evans, Simon J.
Abstract:: In addition to the well-characterized genomic mechanism of steroid action that uses intracellular receptors, steroid hormones also signal through nongenomic processes that use membrane receptors. A membrane receptor for corticosterone (CORT) has been described in brains of the roughskin newt (Taricha granulosa). This receptor is believed to be a G-protein...

Creator:: Zoeller, Robert T.
Abstract:: One hypothesis proposed to explain how the endocrine system controls reproductive cycles in seasonally breeding animals is that the hypothalamus undergoes seasonal changes in sensitivity to negative feedback by gonadal steroids. The result is seasonal changes in the secretion of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) and gonadotropin secretion. The present experiments...
