Journal ArticleDOI
Sexual dimorphism in the vomeronasal pathway and sex differences in reproductive behaviors.
TL;DR: It is suggested here that the greater number of neurons which male rats present in relation to females in most VNS structures might contribute to the inhibition of the expression of feminine copulatory behavior (lordosis) and maternal behavior in males.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hormone-treated transsexuals report less social distress, anxiety and depression
Esther Gómez-Gil,Leire Zubiaurre-Elorza,Isabel Esteva,Antonio Guillamón,Teresa Godás,M. Cruz Almaraz,Irene Halperin,Manel Salamero +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that most transsexual patients attending a gender identity unit reported subclinical levels of social distress, anxiety, and depression, and patients under cross-sex hormonal treatment displayed a lower prevalence of these symptoms than patients who had not initiated hormonal therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
The bed nucleus of the stria terminalis in the rat: regional sex differences controlled by gonadal steroids early after birth
TL;DR: The effects of postnatal male orchidectomy and female androgenization on the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST) were studied and sex differences were found in the medial anterior region of the BNST where female rats always showed a greater volume than did the males.
Journal ArticleDOI
Learned immobility explains the behavior of rats in the forced swimming test
TL;DR: It is shown that a single dose of 25 mg/kg of imipramine, administered before or immediately after training on Day 1, increases rat's mobility on Day 2, thus suggesting that imipramsine alters the consolidation process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early effects of gonadal steroids on the neuron number in the medial posterior region and the lateral division of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis in the rat
TL;DR: The results obtained in this study support the hypothesis that the VNS is sexodimorphic, and suggest that sex differences exist in MOS, and that these differences are controlled by gonadal steroids during the perinatal period.
