In the present experiment peri-pubertal female mice were treated with a partially purified puberty accelerating urine extract (PAUE). Mice treated with the PAUE showed an advance in the onset of puberty as indicated by significantly increased uterine…
Male retired breeder C57/Bl and CD-1 mice were treated with either MPTP or its vehicle. At 7-10 days post-treatment, catecholamine concentrations within the olfactory bulbs (OB) and hypothalamus were determined. Norepinephrine concentrations within…
In this report the olfactory bulbs (OB) were removed from 5-6 month, 15-16 month and 25-26 month male Fischer 344 rats and assayed for concentrations of monoamines and their metabolites using HPLC-EC. Concentrations of norepinephrine were…
It has been demonstrated that castration alters the functioning of the olfactory bulb (OB)-norepinephrine (NE) system. In the present experiment, we examined one of the mechanisms by which castration modulates the OB-NE system by comparing NE uptake…
Concentrations and in vitro release of norepinephrine were determined from left and right olfactory bulbs of adult male CD-1 mice. Norepinephrine concentrations from the left olfactory bulbs were significantly greater than those of the right (p…
