Tamoxifen is an antiestrogen widely used for the treatment of breast cancer. Current evolutions in preventive strategies to include healthy premenopausal women warrant the study of its developmental toxicity. Perinatal treatment of male rodents with tamoxifen caused reproductive tract lesions and se

## Abstract __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
A sexually dimorphic male nucleus (MN) is present in Nissl-stained sections through the dorsal (d) preoptic area/anterior hypothalamus (POA/AH) of male ferrets. The MN-POA/AH is composed of a cluster of large cells which is organized in males by the action of estradiol, formed via the neural aromati
## Abstract A sexually dimorphic nucleus is located in the preoptic area of Japanese quail and plays a key role in the activation of male copulatory behavior. The medial preoptic nucleus (POM) is significantly larger in adult male than in adult female quail. Its volume is steroidβsensitive in adult
The rat lumbar spinal cord contains the testosterone-dependent spinal nucleus of the bulbocavernosus (SNB), whose motoneurons innervate perineal muscles involved in copulatory reflexes. In normal males, SNB dendrites grow exuberantly through the first 4 weeks postnatally. This growth is steroid-depe
