Three experiments are presented in which dopamine (DA) responses from superfused striatal tissue of orchidectomized (ORCH) mice treated or not with testosterone (T) are compared. In experiment 1, potassium-stimulated DA output was significantly…
The gonadal steroid hormone estrogen (E) can function as a neuroprotectant of nigrostriatal dopaminergic (NSDA) neurotoxicity, however, there exists very limited information on the role of testosterone (T) in this capacity. In the present report, the…
