Cadmium induces testosterone synthesis disorder by testicular cell damage via TLR4/MAPK/NF-κB signaling pathway leading to reduced sexual behavior in piglets

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
Cadmium (Cd) is a highly toxic metal pollutant that can endanger the life and health of animals. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) can result in testicular cell damage by positively regulating mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/nuclear factor-kappaB (NF ...

Glutamate Afferents From the Medial Prefrontal Cortex Mediate Nucleus Accumbens Activation by Female Sexual Behavior

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2019
Low levels of desire and arousal are the primary sexual dysfunctions in women, necessitating neurobiological studies of sexual motivation in female animal models.

The endogenous cannabinoid system modulates male sexual behavior expression

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2023
The endocannabinoid system (ECS) plays a key neuromodulatory role in the brain. Main features of endocannabinoids (eCBs) are that they are produced on demand, in response to enhanced neuronal activity, act as retrograde messengers, and participate in the

Phenotyping the males of mouse and rat strains with genetically defined behavioral disturbances in a model of sexual activation

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2015
Sexual behavior is one of the biologically highly relevant types of behavior. Sexual arousal, or an initial stage of sexual behavior, is of particular interest since it triggers all the following events but still remains the least known element of this ...

Being friendly: paced mating for the study of physiological, behavioral, and neuroplastic changes induced by sexual behavior in females

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2023
Paced mating in rats is an experimental condition that allows the evaluation of sexual behavior in a way that closely resembles what occurs in seminatural and natural conditions enabling the female to control the rate of the sexual interaction.

Comparison of Sexual Behavior Patterns in Small Laboratory Animals

open access: yesExperimental Animals, 1993
It is known that in the reproductive systems, aged-related changes are prominent. Similarly, in normal nonhuman primates and other mammals such as rats, various sexual activities of male and female decline with aging. The purpose of the present study was to clarify the pattern of sexual behavior in matured mice, voles, Syrian hamsters, rats, guinea ...

Sexually dimorphic nuclei in the spinal cord control male sexual functions

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
Lower spinal cord injuries frequently cause sexual dysfunction in men, including erectile dysfunction and an ejaculation disorder. This indicates that the important neural centers for male sexual function are located within the lower spinal cord. It is

Behavioral evidence of the functional interaction between the main and accessory olfactory system suggests a large olfactory system with a high plastic capability

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2023
Olfaction is fundamental in many species of mammals. In rodents, the integrity of this system is required for the expression of parental and sexual behavior, mate recognition, identification of predators, and finding food.

Female sexual behavior in mice is controlled by kisspeptin neurons

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Mate preference and copulatory behavior in female rodents are coordinated with the ovulation cycles of the animal. This study shows that hypothalamic kisspeptin neurons control both mate choice and copulation, and therefore, that sexual behavior and ...
