Morphology, histology and steroid hormones of the gonads in intersex pigs [PDF]
Reproduction, 1982 Studies of 3 genetically female, intersex pigs revealed that only one showed oestrous cycles and lordosis, the other 2 exhibited various components of male sexual behaviour. Each uterus was a patent bicornuate structure, but 5 of the oviducts were incompletely formed.

Are gonadal steroid hormones involved in disorders of brain aging? [PDF]
Aging Cell, 2003 SummaryHuman aging is associated with a decrease of circulating gonadal steroid hormones. Since these hormones act as trophic factors for neurones and glia, it is possible that the decrease in sex steroid levels may contribute to the increased risk of neurodegenerative disorders with advanced age.

Skin exposure to UVB light induces a skin-brain-gonad axis and sexual behavior
Cell Reports, 2021 Summary: Ultraviolet (UV) light affects endocrinological and behavioral aspects of sexuality via an unknown mechanism. Here we discover that ultraviolet B (UVB) exposure enhances the levels of sex-steroid hormones and sexual behavior, which are mediated ...
