TL;DR: It is suggested that MW radiation-induced oxidative stress by increasing ROS production in the body may lead to DNA strand breakage in the brain cells and implantation failure/resorption or abnormal pregnancy in mice.

TL;DR: Cloacal gland (an androgen dependent sex accessory) of Japanese quail exhibits full breeding condition as long as these were maintained under long days (LD 16:8), but, when the birds were shifted to 13L, photoresponses cannot be generalized and it depends on the photoperiod to which quail were exposed previously.

TL;DR: The cloning of a third neuropeptide receptor in the chicken is reported and Parsimony analysis reveals that the new receptor has highest homology to mammalian OT receptors and the MT receptors of non-mammalian vertebrates.

TL;DR: It is observed that MW irradiation induced a significant decrease in sperm count and sperm viability along with the decrease in seminiferous tubule diameter and degeneration of seminiferously tubules, which suggest that chronic exposure to nonionizing MW radiation may lead to infertility via free radical species-mediated pathway.

TL;DR: Exposure to CW MW radiation leads to oxidative/nitrosative stress induced p53-dependent/independent activation of hippocampal neuronal and nonneuronal apoptosis associated with spatial memory loss, and learning and spatial memory deficit which increases with the increased duration of MW exposure is correlated with a decrease in hippocampal subfield neuronal arborization and dendritic spines.
