Pharmacological effect of one icv dose of Allopregnanolone in female rat: behavioural profile
(Instituto Brasileiro do Meio Ambiente e dos Recursos Naturais Renováveis, 2015-06-30)
We have previously observed that intracerebroventricular allopregnanolone (ALLO) injection produced an anxiolytic effect and inhibited sexual receptivity when the test was performed in a separate manner. Also, ALLO reverts ...
Effect of substrate on the locomotion behaviour of the South American iguanian lizard Polychrus acutirostris
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2010)
Arboreal and terrestrial habitats impose different constraints on tetrapod locomotion. We studied Polychrus acutirostris, a tree-dwelling lizard that also moves on the ground, in order to evaluate the effects of support ...
