Journal Article
Effects of dietary magnesium on testicular histology, steroidogenesis, spermatogenesis and oxidative stress markers in adult rats.
TL;DR: The results suggests that the changes that occurred after excessive magnesium in testis were not for the enhanced adrenocortical activities or for the generation of oxidative stress in reproductive organs, but for the direct action of excess magnesium on male gonads.
Journal ArticleDOI
Excessive dietary calcium in the disruption of structural and functional status of adult male reproductive system in rat with possible mechanism
TL;DR: Overall observations suggest that excessive dietary calcium enhances the generation of free-radicals resulting in structural and functional disruption of male reproduction.
Book ChapterDOI
Stress and Reproduction in Amphibians
TL;DR: The chapter summarizes recent developments in understanding of the neural and endocrine pathways that mediate stressor effects on reproduction and the role of glucocorticoids in energy metabolism during reproduction in amphibians.
Journal Article
Dose-dependent effect of copper chloride on male reproductive function in immature rats
TL;DR: It is suggested that copper has got a dose-dependent effect on testicular steroidogenic enzyme activity and stimulation of testicular spermatogenesis and serum testosterone and LH level in maturing male rats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of steroid hormones on spermatogenesis and GnRH release in male Leopard frogs, Rana pipiens.
TL;DR: This is the first study to report the direct measurement of GnRH secretion in a poikilothermic tetrapod and revealed potent but sometimes paradoxical effects of steroid hormones, especially E(2), on the reproductive regulation of the male R. pipiens.

Synergistic Effect of Follicle-Stimulating Hormone and Luteinizing Hormone on Testicular δ-3β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase-isomerase: Application of a New Method for the Separation of Testicular Compartments
TL;DR: Both the newly described method and the wet dissection method resulted in interstitial tissue free of contaminating germ cells and in seminiferous tubules essentially free of adhering Leydig cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adrenal Function in Cockerels1
TL;DR: Treatment with dexamethasone phosphate eliminated cortic testosterone from adrenal vein plasma of both groups of cockerels, but failed to inhibit corticosterone synthesis from endogenous precursors at 3 different dose levels in incubated adrenal slices of intact cocke Rels in vitro.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of adrenocorticotropin and corticosterone on the negative feedback action of testosterone in the adult male rat.
TL;DR: It is concluded that a high serum level of corticosterone increases the sensitivity to the negative feedback effects of testosterone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modification of serum luteinizing hormone and prolactin concentrations by corticotropin and adrenalectomy in ovariectomized rats.
TL;DR: Findings indicate that ACTH acts directly to reduce serum LH concentration and to enhance serum prolactin.
