Age Impacts Perineuronal Net Density in the Somatosensory Genital Cortex Independently of Gonadal Steroid Hormones [PDF]
A hallmark of pubertal development is the rise in gonadal hormone secretions and the subsequent onset of sexual behavior. The size of the somatosensory genital cortex increases in response to both this rise in gonadal steroid hormones and sexual ...

Abstract The exploration of gender differences in non‐andrological fields was the core focus of a series of discussions, which took place at the Endocrinology Unit in Modena, Italy in the form of the aporetic dialogue of ancient Greece. This second episode reports the transcript of the actual debate on testosterone's role in defining empathic behavior ...

Abstract Background Myocyte enhancer factor 2 transcription factors regulate essential transcriptional programs in various cell types. The activity of myocyte enhancer factor 2 factors is modulated through interactions with cofactors, chromatin remodelers, and other regulatory proteins, which are dependent on cell context and physiological state.

Differential Effects of Neonatal Testosterone Treatment on Aggression in Two Selection Lines of Mice [PDF]
Selection lines of mice, artificially selected for aggression based upon the attack latency score (ALS), were used. In order to determine the relative contribution of neonatal testosterone (T) in the development of aggression, we vary the plasma-T level ...

Models of Endocrine-Disrupting Effects: Human Placental Steroidogenesis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Endocrine disruption during pregnancy has gained increasing interest as epidemiological studies report associations of exposures and adverse effects on fetal growth, followed by effects on the growing child and ultimately in the adult. When studying endocrine disruption during pregnancy, the placental steroidogenesis is difficult to model, as ...

Zebrafish sexual behavior: role of sex steroid hormones and prostaglandins
BackgroundMating behavior differ between sexes and involves gonadal hormones and possibly sexually dimorphic gene expression in the brain. Sex steroids and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) have been shown to regulate mammalian sexual behavior.
