Humoral pathway for transfer of the boar pheromone, androstenol, from the nasal mucosa to the brain and hypophysis of gilts

Theriogenology, 1999
Signaling and priming pheromones play an important role in intraspecies behavioral and sexual interactions and in the control of reproduction. It is generally accepted that pheromones act by stimulating the dendritic receptors in the mucus-imbedded cilia of olfactory neurons massed in the olfactory epithelium.

Influence of Androstenol and Androsterone on the Evalulation of Men of Varying Attractiveness Levels

1992
The components of human axillary secretions, especially odoriferous steroids, may take part in human olfactory communication in a manner analogous to the odours from specialized skin glands in animals (Labows et al., 1982). Filsinger & Fabes (1985), for expample, suggest that some of them (especially androstenol, androstenone) may be putative human ...

The influence of androstenol — a putative human pheromone — on mood throughout the menstrual cycle

Biological Psychology, 1982
Each morning for a month female subjects placed either 5 alpha-androst-16-en-3 alpha-ol, a putative human pheromone, or a placebo on the upper lip. Each evening the subjects rated on five scales their moods during that day. In the middle of their monthly cycle those females exposed to androstenol rather than a control tended to rate their moods as ...

Androstenol, a putative human pheromone, affects human (Homo sapiens) male choice performance.

Journal of Comparative Psychology, 1987
A natural secretion, 5 alpha-androst-16-en-3 alpha-ol (androstenol) is speculated to function as a spacing pheromone. The effect of the odor of androstenol on restroom-stall choices was investigated over a 5-week period. The first, third, and fifth weeks served as baselines against which the effect of androstenol or a control odor, 3 alpha-hydroxy-5 ...

Changes in Detection Thresholds of Androstenol and Pentalide During the Menstrual Cycle

1994
Fluctuations in women’s sensory sensitivity, feelings, and behavior during the menstrual cycle have been suggested. Most studies of olfactory sensitivity have suggested increased sensitivity during the ovulatory phase [1,2,3]. However, several reports have noted a secondary peak during the luteal phase [1] and some have reported no changes during the ...

A Possible Humoral Pathway for the Priming Action of the Male Pheromone Androstenol on Female Pigs

2001
Intraspecific communication by chemical signals (pheromones) plays important behavioral and physiological roles in coordinating reproduction in mammals. Females of a variety of domestic species respond to pheromones from males by undergoing an earlier onset of puberty (Brooks and Cole, 1970; Kirkwood et al., 1983; Kalbrom, 1982; Pearce and Paterson ...

The Pheromone Androstenol (5α-Androst-16-en-3α-ol) Is a Neurosteroid Positive Modulator of GABAA Receptors

The Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, 2006
Androstenol is a steroidal compound belonging to the group of odorous 16-androstenes, first isolated from boar testes and also found in humans. Androstenol has pheromone-like properties in both animals and humans, but the molecular targets of its pheromonal activity are unknown.

Assessment of porcine and human 16‐ene‐synthase, a third activity of P450c17, in the formation of an androstenol precursor

European Journal of Biochemistry, 2003
Recently, we have shown that the biosynthesis of androstenol, a potential endogenous ligand for the orphan receptors constitutive androstane receptor and pregnane‐X‐receptor, requires the presence of enzymes of the steroidogenic pathway, such as 3β‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, 5α‐reductase and 3α‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase.

[Stimulation of ovulation with analogs of luliberin, androstenol and their combination with L-DOPA].

Farmakologiia i toksikologiia, 1986
The stimulating effects on ovulation of three original analogues of luliberin and three derivatives of androstenol as compared with clomiphene were shown. An increase of their effects under the conditions of activation of the adrenergic system by L-DOPA administration was also found.
