Journal ArticleDOI

Selective ablation of olfactory receptor neurons without functional impairment of vomeronasal receptor neurons in OMP-ntr transgenic mice.

TL;DR: This novel technique could potentially be applied to selectively ablate olfactory receptor neurons expressing a particular o aroma receptor by linking its expression to that of the nitroreductase enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comparison of the effects of methyltrienolone (R 1881) and 5α-dihydrotestosterone on sexual behavior of castrated male rats

TL;DR: The results suggest that conversion of DHT to 3α- or 3β-androstanediol neither detracts from nor contributes to its ability to activate sexual behavior in the male rat.
Journal ArticleDOI

Addressing the psychological needs of the conservatively treated breast cancer patient: discussion paper.

TL;DR: Data from the CRC Breast Conservation Trial challenge the assumption that breast loss is the primary cause of psychosocial problems post-mastectomy, and show that the lumpectomy patients appeared more anxious than the mastectomy patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sex and gonadal steroid modulation of pheromone receptor gene expression in the mouse vomeronasal organ.

TL;DR: Exposure to soiled male bedding augmented immediate early gene immunoreactivity in neurons of the basal zone of the vomeronasal organ, an effect that depended on gender and sex steroid expression, and no evidence was found that vomer onasal organs neurons express either androgen or estrogen receptors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Building a scientific framework for studying hormonal effects on behavior and on the development of the sexually dimorphic nervous system.

TL;DR: This paper summarizes presentations given at the June 2007 11th International Neurotoxicology Association (INA-11) meeting, which addressed issues of increasing concern that low-dose exposure to hormonally active chemicals disrupts sexual differentiation of the brain and peripheral nervous system.
