Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHormonal and Histopathological Alterations in Pituitary Glands and Reproductive Organs of Male and Female Mice Orally Inoculated with Pasteurella Multocida Type B: 2 and its LipopolysaccharidesFaez Firdaus Jesse Abdullah, Lawan Adamu, Abdulnasir Tijjani et al.Oral infections of mice as animal model with Pasteurella multocida type B: 2 and its lipopolysaccharides is liable to cause detrimental alterations in the pituitary glands, which results in disruption of reproductive hormonal levels as well as organ functions in the male and female animals; thereby impeding the fertility of at risk animal population. Therefore, this study was designed to … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 23 Dec 2014 · 7,554 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAMELIORATIVE EFFECT OF HIBISCUS SABDARIFFA LINN ON SUBCHRONIC CHLORPYRIFOS-INDUCED ALTERATIONS IN SEX AND THYROID HORMONES IN MALE WISTAR RATSShittu Muftau, Olatunji Omobolanle Aisha, Suleiman Folorunsho Ambali et al.Studies have shown that Chlorpyrifos (CPF), an Organophosphate (OP) insecticide alters both sex and thyroid hormones. Apart from inhibiting Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity, CPF has been shown to cause oxidative stress. The antioxidant potentials of many flavonoid-containing plants are increasingly being exploited in the therapy of many infectious and non-infectious diseases. Hibiscus Sabdariffa (HS) is one of the most widely used … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 20 Feb 2014 · 9,097 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy on Follicle Stimulating Hormone Receptor Gene Polymorphisms in South Indian Women with Polycystic Ovarian SyndromeHimavanth Reddy Kambalachenu, Solomon Franklin Durairaj Paul, Sanjeeva Reddy Nellepalli, Perumal VenkatachalamPolycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder of women in their reproductive ages. Though PCOS is a complex, heterogeneous disorder, but there is strong evidence for its genetic predisposition. The aim was to study the association of Follicle Stimulating Hormone Receptor (FSHR) gene polymorphisms rs1394205, rs6165 and rs6166 in south Indian women with PCOS. The present case … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 4 Sep 2013 · 12,695 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVitamin E Mitigates Chronic Chlorpyrifos-Induced Oxidative Changes in Pituitary Glands and Testes in Wistar RatsM. Shittu, J. O. Ayo, S. F. Ambali et al.Problem statement: The sperm counts of men have declined by about 50% in the last few decades. The contribution of environmental contaminants to this decline cannot be overemphasized. Pesticide is one of the most pervasive environmental chemical contaminants that have been of increased use due to the compelling need to feed the ever-growing world human and animal population and protect … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 19 Nov 2011 · 7,309 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResidential Exposure of Environment Toxic Substance Outcome during Menstrual CycleS. Alagendran, G Archunan, M. P. Jonathan et al.Problem statement: It was intended to diagnose and treat the disorders of female reproductive system where they are exposed to environmentally toxic pesticides and estrogenic compounds like bisphenol A which are the main reason for the infertility problems. Approach: Human saliva contains arrays of proteins that have distinct biological functions. Results: Salivary hormones concentrations of luteinising hormone, follicle stimulating hormone, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 6,873 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Vitro Metabolism Studies of Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers Using Rat and Human Liver MicrosomesShun Wen Cheng, Kathleen Randall, Anne T. KotchevarA number of studies have recently reported the bioaccumulation of the commonly used fire retardants, Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDEs), in humans and wildlife. Exposure of animals to PBDEs has been shown to result in developmental neurological, reproductive abnormalities and the disruption of endocrine function. Thyroid hormone equilibria was also shown to be altered by PBDE exposure. There is evidence that … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 6,998 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNoninvasive Measurement of Fecal Progesterone Concentration in Toy Poodles by Time Resolved Fluoroimmunoassay (TR-FIA)Satoshi Sugimura, Kaori Narita, Hideaki Yamashiro et al.Progesterone is an important reproductive hormone and measurement of its level by repeated blood samplings is beneficial to monitoring of estrus cycle. However, since toy poodles have a small body size and thin-walled blood vessels, repeated blood samplings cause stress and affect their preparation for mating or artificial insemination (AI). Therefore, a noninvasive method for monitoring progesterone concentration should be … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 6,564 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Salivary Electrolytes during Normal Menstrual Cycle with Special Reference to OvulationS. Alagendran, Govindaraju Archunan, Enrique Orozco Bonnila Armando, Rosalinda Guevara GuzmanThere is evidence to imply that estrogen influences salivary electrolytes activity in women. Problem statement: In this study we investigated changes in sodium, potassium and inorganic phosphorus, calcium and magnesium which related to find out the precise day of ovulation. These changes might help to explain the fluctuation of ovarian hormones such as preovulatory estrogen surge. Approach: Human whole saliva … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 8,805 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEffects of Vitamin E on Stress Resorption, Lipid Profile and Reproductive Performance of Sokoto Red GoatsKehinde Matthias OKUKPE, Ling Shing Wong, Geetha Subramaniam et al.Vitamin E (α-tocopherol) plays a critical role in animal nutrition as an antioxidant, contributing to anti-inflammatory responses, immune function, and gene expression regulation. This study aimed to determine the optimal dietary level of vitamin E to alleviate the effects of environmental stress in Sokoto Red Goats transported from their native dry savannah belt to the humid derived savanna belt of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 20 Mar 2026 · 1,509 accessesView PDF Cite
