Foeniculum vulgare (Fennel) Effects on Puberty Timing, Reproductive Function and Behaviour in Adult Female Mice Following Neonatal Exposure

 Background & Objective:  Fennel, as an edible plant, and due to its estrogenic compounds, has widely been used as a therapeutic agent for centuries. In this study, the effects of neonatal exposure to fennel alcoholic extract (FAE), on the onset of puberty, estrus cycle, ovaries, and lordosis were investigated.  Materials & Methods:  In this experimental study, 48 female BALB/c pups were divid...

Reproductive Function In Men Following Exposure to Chemical Warfare Containing Sulfur Mustard

  SUMMARY In order to investigate acute and chronic effects of exposure to warfare containing mustards in young men, the time course of changes in serum concentrations of total and free testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone (DS), FSH, LH and prolactin was evaluated in 16 men in the first 3 months and testicular function in 42 men one to three years after injury. Serum total and free testostero...

Reproductive toxicology. Diethylstilbestrol.

SV40 is a small, non enveloped DNA virus with an icosahedral capsid of 45 nm. The outer shell is composed of pentamers of the major capsid protein, VP1, linked via their flexible carboxy-terminal arms. Its morphogenesis occurs by assembly of capsomers around the viral minichromosome. However the steps leading to the formation of mature virus are poorly understood. Intermediates of the assembly ...
