Studies with 6-n-propyl-2-thiouracil (PTU) in laboratory rodents have shown that transient neonatal hypothyroidism leads to increased Sertoli cell (SC) number, testis size and sperm production. However, scarce and inconclusive data are available for

In this article, part of an issue of PEPTIDES celebrating the many years of dedication of Dr. A.J. Kastin as Editor-in-Chief of the journal, I describe how I first met him and how our friendship and collaboration developed. In 1970 I joined Dr. A.V.

Tachykinins are bioactive peptides whose presence has been demonstrated in endocrine glands, where they likely exert a paracrine modulatory activity on hormonal secretions. In the ovary, tachykinins have been shown to be present in nerve fibers, bloo

The present study examines the influence of maternal pineal gland on the frontal cortex, striatal and testicular concentrations of the tachykinins, neurokinin A (NKA) and substance P (SP). Control, pinealectomized (PIN-X) and PIN-X plus melatonin-tre

The concentrations of neurokinin A (NKA) and substance P (SP), members of tachykinins family, have been studied in all seasons of the year in frontal cortex, striatum and testes of male offspring 21-, 31-, or 60 days old of mother Wistar rats: contro

Tachykinins are vasoactive and smooth muscle-contracting peptides with widespread localizations. Tachykinins have been localized in the nerve fibres that supply the testes, in the Leydig cells of different animal species, and also in Sertoli cells of

Previous data showed that aging of the central nervous system (CNS) is associated with widespread changes in tachykinin gene expression. However, there are no data about the possible role of exogenous melatonin in modulating the tachykinergic system

Bclw is a death-protecting member of the Bcl2 family of apoptosis-regulating proteins. Mice that are mutant for Bclw display progressive and nearly complete testicular degeneration. We performed a morphometric evaluation of testicular histopathology

Histometrical evaluation of the testis was performed in 36 Piau pigs from birth to 16 mo of age to investigate Sertoli cell, Leydig cell, and germ cell proliferation. In addition, blood samples were taken in seven animals from 1 wk of age to adulthoo

Cimetidine (Tagamet) is a potent histaminic H2-receptor antagonist, extensively prescribed for ulcers and now available without prescription. Cimetidine is a known testicular toxicant, but its mechanism of action remains uncertain. Rats were treated
