The susceptibilities of maize (Zea mays cv. Champ) and two graminicide-resistant grass species, Poa annua (annual meadow grass) and Festuca rubra (red fescue), to two aryloxyphenoxypropionates (quizalofop and fluazifop) and a cyclohexanedione (sethoxydim) graminicide were evaluated in leaf blades
Estrogen exposure during critical periods of development promotes androgenization of the brain, which is reflected in altered morphology, behavior, and cyclic hormone secretion in females. Previous work in our laboratory demonstrated that neonatal female rats injected with pharmaceutical or
The object of the present study was to determine the c-fos gene expression pattern in the hypothalamus (HYP) and the preoptic area (POA) after estradiol and testosterone priming during the critical period of sexual differentiation of the rat brain. Three-day-old female rats were injected s.c. with a
In vitro, the organophosphate insecticide fenitrothion is a potent competitive androgen receptor antagonist, whereas in vivo it affects the development of the male rat reproductive system. The purpose of this pilot study was to determine whether prenatal exposure to fenitrothion affects development
Progesterone receptor (PR) plays an important role during sexual differentiation of the rat brain. The objective of the present study was to determine PR protein and gene expression pattern in preoptic-anterior hypothalamic area (POA-AHA) and hypothalamus (HYP), after estradiol or testosterone
Cooking is an important source of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and a potential source of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) both indoors and outdoors. In this study, VOC emissions from heating corn oil and stir-frying spices (i.e. garlic, ginger, myrcia and zanthoxylum piperitum (Sichuan pepper))
Exposure to naturally occurring estrogens during critical periods of development can alter morphologic and physiologic markers of sexual differentiation. The current experiment characterizes the effects of in utero treatment with genistein, an isoflavonoid phytoestrogen, on birth weight, anogenital
The neonatal hormone environment influences the sexually differentiated patterns of development. Estrogens, derived from intracerebral aromatization, promote male pattern development of the central nervous system. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of neonatal exposure to
In order to examine the cellular mechanisms by which estradiol (E2) exerts its acute negative feedback upon luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion, a temporal correlation was made among serum LH concentrations, pituitary responsiveness to luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH), and the
The neonatal hormone environment determines the sexually differentiated pattern of brain growth. Estrogens, derived from intracerebral aromatization of testosterone, promote male sexual central nervous system (CNS) development. Developing animals may also encounter estrogens from plant, fungal, and
The number of progesterone receptors is greater in the male than female neonatal rat hypothalamus. The aims of the present study were to determine developmental effects of progesterone on the expression of adult male sexual behaviour and whether changes in behaviour were reflected by altered gene
BACKGROUND
Pollen from different grass species are some of the most potent elicitors of Type I allergy worldwide. The characterization of antigenic structures and IgE epitopes common to different grass species is relevant to define reagents for diagnosis and specific therapy of grass pollen
