Motoneurons in the spinal nucleus of the bulbocavernosus (SNB) innervate the perineal muscles, bulbocavernosus (BC), and levator ani (LA). Testosterone regulates the survival of SNB motoneurons and BC/LA muscles during perinatal life. Previous findings suggest that effects of testosterone on this sy
## Abstract Hyperactivity of the hypothalamicβpituitaryβadrenal (HPA) axis is a marked feature of anorexia nervosa. Using a modified version of the activityβbased animal model of anorexia nervosa, we examine whether factors known to affect HPA axis activity influence the development of activityβbas
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
