We examined responses of adult male Mongolian gerbils to nest site and young during the hours preceding and days following birth of a litter. We found that (a) male attendance at the nest site was markedly reduced for several hours following the birth of pups; (b) this lack of contact by males with

## Abstract The present study is an analysis of the effects of superβovulatory doses of gonadotropins on the rate and time of ovulation and ovarian histology in immature gerbils. Groups were treated with various combinations of pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG) and human chorionic gonadotropi
## Abstract Mongolian gerbils living with their natal families undergo delayed reproductive maturation while helping to rear their younger siblings, whereas those housed away from their natal families may mature earlier but often respond aggressively to unfamiliar pups. We tested whether cohabitati
The expression of the proto-oncogene, c-fos, and its protein, Fos, has been shown to be a useful marker for elevated levels of neuronal activity generated in the brain following different stimuli, including seizures. Since previous studies indicated hippocampal involvement in seizure activity in ger
We studied the effects of inimuiie sera, an antibiotic, and a corticosteroid used alone or in combination on leptospira infection in Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculritusi. The results suggest that the combined used of immune serum and corticosteroid (pledonizoron: PZ) inhibits the effects of s
## Abstract ## Objectives/Hypothesis: Recent studies in animal models have shown via physiologic and histologic measures that the administration of exogenous antioxidants is protective against gentamicinβinduced otoβvestibulo toxicity. In addition, studies have also shown that sound conditioning i
