Starving or Stuffing? Plasticity in Wild Boar Body Mass Variations During Summer in a Mediterranean Area

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Assessing drivers of population dynamics helps to mitigate human–wildlife conflicts. In Mediterranean areas, summer aridity reduces resources, potentially affecting ungulates' body condition and reproduction. In a mixed forested‐rural area, wild boar female body mass increased throughout summer in rainy‐mild years and decreased in hot‐dry years.

Maternal, childhood and adolescent influences on Leydig cell functional capacity and circulating INSL3 concentration in young adults: Importance of childhood infections and body mass index

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The constitutive Leydig cell hormone insulin‐like peptide 3 (INSL3) is considered a good estimate of the adult Leydig cell functional capacity and appears to remain relatively consistent throughout adult male life, only gradually declining into old age.

Cyclic Treatment With WIN 18,446, a Potential Male Contraceptive, is as Effective as Continuous Treatment for Suppression of Spermatogenesis in Mice

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Retinoic acid plays a critical role in spermatogenesis during both spermatogonial differentiation and spermiation. Mice lacking enzymes that synthesize retinoic acid, Aldh1a1/1a2, in the testes are infertile. WIN 18,446 reversibly inhibits spermatogenesis by inhibiting ALDH1A1/1A2 and is a promising approach to male contraception ...
