In the present study, [3H]nisoxetine binding to norepinephrine (NE) uptake sites and [3H]norepinephrine uptake were investigated within olfactory bulb (OB) and frontal cortex homogenates from intact and castrated male rats. Statistically significant…
In order to investigate the possible relationship among the olfactory bulb (OB), norepinephrine (NE) and gonadal steroids, we measured NE release from superfused anterior and posterior OB in intact and castrated male rats (Expt. I) as well as in…
In the present experiment, habituation/dishabituation behavioral tests were conducted to measure discriminatory olfactory recognition responses to chemical cues among control, castrated, and castrated+L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA)-treated…
In the rat thoracic aorta, contractile responses to vasopressin are two-fold higher in females than in males, primarily because nitric oxide-mediated attenuation of contraction is greater in males than in females. To determine the role of the gonadal…
