Vaginocervical Stimulation Inhibits Female–Female Mounting in Laboratory Rats

Physiology & Behavior, 1999
The objective of this study was to examine how vaginocervical stimulation (VCS) affects female-female mounting in laboratory rats. After receiving sexual stimulation from the male, the latency for the female to mount another female was significantly longer than that of control females.

Contextual determinants of female–female mounting in laboratory rats

Animal Behaviour, 1999
Female-female mounting is widespread among mammalian species, but little is known about the proximal function of this behaviour. While such mounting is often regarded as a 'masculine' trait, its widespread occurrence may indicate that it serves specific functions within the context of female-female social behaviour.

Carbon tetrachloride hepatotoxicity in female rats

Experimental and Molecular Pathology, 1971
Abstract Intragastric administration of carbon tetrachloride to female rats induces rapid onset of peroxidative decomposition of lipids of the liver endoplasmic reticulum. The effect observed in female rats is indistinguishable from the same effect first observed in male rats.

Chromium induced teratogenicity in female rat

Toxicology Letters, 1996
Exposure to chromium (VI) (250, 500 and 750 ppm as potassium dichromate) via drinking water pregestationally in rats revealed embryo- and fetotoxic effects in the form of a significant reduction in the number of implantations and number of fetuses. An increase in the number of resorptions, pre-implantation and post-implantation loss in chromium (VI ...

Ameloblastoma in a female Wistar rat

Experimental and Toxicologic Pathology, 1995
A spontaneous ameloblastoma of the right mandible is described in a 120-week-old female Wistar rat (strain Chbb: THOM). The tumour had a locally aggressive growth pattern and was histologically characterized by sheets and islands of odontogenic epithelium bounded by a palisaded layer of ameloblast-like cells. Because of multifocal keratinizing squamous

The Female Rat

2016
The rat is one of the most ubiquitous experimental animals used in the investigation of reproductive physiology. This specie shows sexually dimorphic behaviors, which are those that differ due to gender and may also vary depending on the physiologic state of the animals involved (Kustritz 2005).

WAY100635 and female rat lordosis behavior

Brain Research, 2004
Sexually receptive proestrous rats with bilateral cannulae in the ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus (VMN) were infused with 200 ng of (+/-)-8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino) tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) or with 8-OH-DPAT plus varying concentrations (200 to 2000 ng) of the 5-HT1A receptor antagonist, N-[2[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethyl]N-(2 ...

LORDOSIS BEHAVIOUR IN MALE, FEMALE AND ANDROGENIZED FEMALE RATS

Journal of Endocrinology, 1976
SUMMARY Sex differences in the lordosis response of adult rats to ovarian hormones were studied in a series of experiments. Male rats were less sensitive to oestradiol benzoate (OB, a single injection of 10, 100 or 1000 μg/kg or seven daily injections of 2, 10 or 50 μg/kg) than were female rats. Oestradiol benzoate-primed (10 μg/kg) female, but

Hyperthermia in heat-adapted female rats

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 1973
Abstract 1. 1. Deep body temperature was measured in heat-adapted and control female rats exposed to various environmental temperatures. 2. 2. It is concluded that rats are hyperthermic when exposed to high ambient temperature even though previously heat adapted.

Lordosis Response of Senile Female Rats

Neuroendocrinology, 1977
The lordosis response of 27 ovariectomized senile female rats (20 to 32 months old) primed with either estrogen-progestrone (E/P) or estrogen (E) alone was studied and compared with that of ovariectomized young adult rats (3 to 5 months old). As compared with the young rats, out of the 27 senile rats, only 11 showed decreased response with E/P priming ...
