Antisteroidogenic Activity of Ethanol Extract of Andrographis paniculata in Female Rats
Abstract: Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 In the present study, the antisteroidogenic activity of the ethanolic extract of Andrographis paniculata leaf was investigated in female albino rats. The ethanolic extract-treated rats showed an alteration in the estrous cycle pattern when administered orally with the drug for 15 days. They exhibited a prolonged length of estrous cycle with significant increase in the proestrous and destroys stages compared with …

Chitosan-conjugated GnRH Nanoparticles with AFM Appearance
Abstract: Nanotechnology can provide new tools for molecular and cellular biology, biotechnology, veterinary physiology, reproduction, detection of pathogens and many more. There are several areas such as science, engineering of agriculture, animal and food systems where nanotechnology could be applied. Application of nanotechnology can be employed in the development of sustained release systems of molecules such as hormones, vitamins, antibiotics, antioxidants and nucleic acids. Longer lasting surges in Gonadotropin hormone (GtH) …

Kisspeptin Modulates Reproduction in Ruminants
Abstract: AbstractKisspeptin, a neuropeptide encoded by the KiSS1 gene and its cognate, KiSS1R are the key regulators of reproduction in animals. Kisspeptin, also known as metastin, is a potent secretagogue of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). It stimulates the GnRH neurons in the brain and generates pulses for GnRH thereby its secretion and release, and this in turn stimulates the release of LH and FSH. Owing to its importance in reproductive biology, the …

Study of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) with Special Reference to Candidate Genes
Abstract: The PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) has become a worldwide concern as progression of PCOS in the age group of adolescence to postmenopausal women is increasing. In India, sudden rapid growth in PCOS is observed in the range of 3.7–22.5%. Effects of PCOS are not only on the reproductive and metabolic systems, but the whole body’s metabolism gets affected; ultimately, it leads to different life- style diseases like type 2 diabetes …

Development of an Endocrine Profiles Based Mathematical Model for the Estrous Cycle in Indian Crossbred CowsDevelopment of an Endocrine Profiles Based Mathematical Model for the Estrous Cycle in Indian Crossbred Cows
Abstract: Declined fertility of the high-yielding dairy cows reared under intensive condition of management is of great concern not only for India but for the whole world. The bovine estrous cycle, particularly the estrus, is tightly controlled by the complex interplay of various organs and hormones. Mathematical modeling of the bovine estrous cycle could help in understanding the dynamics of this complex biological system. The authors, therefore, developed a mechanistic mathematical …

A Study on the Impact of Paracetamol on Male Reproductive System: A Mini Review
Abstract: Paracetamol, a widely used analgesic and antipyretic, has been studied for its potential effects on the male reproductive system. Paracetamol is a medication commonly used to relieve mild to moderate pain. Research suggests that prolonged or high-dose use of paracetamol may adversely affect male fertility by disrupting hormone regulation, impairing sperm production, and reducing testosterone levels. Studies have shown that paracetamol can interfere with the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, leading to changes …
