    Attenuation of antepartum relaxin surge and induction of parturition by antiprogesterone RU 486 in sheep O. S. Gazal, Y. Li, C. Schwabe and L. L. Anderson 1 Department of Animal Science, Iowa State University, Ames, LA 50011, USA; and 2Department of Biochemistry, Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston, SC 29459, USA Pregnant ewes were injected with either the antiprogesterone, RU 486 (4 mg kg\m=-\1body weight, i.m.; n = 5), 3000 iu relaxin (i.m.; n = 9), or diluent (n = 8) at 12:00 h on days 144 and 145, to determine its effect on progesterone and relaxin secretion, and on induction of lambing. RU 486 induced earlier lambing (P < 0.01) compared with diluent treatment, but relaxin treatment did not significantly reduce the interval to parturition. Mean injection\p=n-\ lambing intervals were 31 \m=+-\2, 109 \m=+-\23 and 121 \m=+-\27 h for the RU 486, relaxin and diluent groups, respectively. There was no incidence of difficult birth (dystocia); all lambs were vigorous at birth; and placenta delivery was rapid (within 207 min) with RU 486 and relaxin treatments compared with diluent treated controls. Plasma progesterone concen- trations averaged 11 ng ml\m=-\1during the pretreatment period for all animals. RU 486 had a biphasic effect on progesterone concentrations, causing an initial increase (P < 0.05) within 2 h, and then an abrupt drop (P < 0.01) to 6 ng ml\m=-\1by 18:00 h on day 145. Progesterone concentrations remained consistently lower (P < 0.05) in relaxin-treated ewes than in diluent\x=req-\ treated controls from days 144 to 147 and then began a steady decrease to 4 ng ml\m=-\1on the day of parturition (days 149 and 150) in both groups.

Whatever the reason, care needs to be taken so that as little harm is done to the body as possible because despite having muscle building effects they also have serious side effects especially when used incorrectly. WHAT ARE THEY? Anabolic steroids are man made versions of the hormone testosterone.

  • Development of a Human 3D Prostate Microtissue Assay for Anti
    Development of a Human 3D Prostate Microtissue Assay for Anti-androgen Screening Chad Deisenroth1, Joshua Harrill1, Cassandra Brinkman1, Menghang Xia2, Kevin Crofton1, Russell Thomas1 1 National Center for Computational Toxicology, ORD, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Research Triangle Park, NC 27711 2 National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences, National Institute of Health, Rockville, MD 20850 Altered androgen hormone biosynthesis and metabolism can modulate androgen levels, contributing to endocrine disruption that may result in impaired reproductive and sexual development. Steroid 5α-reductase isozymes are expressed in key peripheral tissues and catalyze the conversion of testosterone into the more potent androgen 5α - dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Activation of maximal androgen signaling requires conversion of testosterone to DHT to bind to the androgen receptor (AR) and induce transactivation of downstream gene signaling. The evaluation of chemical-mediated disruption of androgen signaling is typically performed through a combination of in vitro and in vivo tests that interrogate both receptor and non-receptor events including accessory sex organ (ASO) development. Chemical-mediated disruption of ASO development may occur via inhibition of 5α-reductase, or direct disruption of AR signaling. The objective here was to establish a higher- tier human-based, in vitro assay of ASO growth using a multiplexed 3D prostate epithelial cell microtissue model. The androgen-sensitive LNCaP cell line was seeded in a 96-well hanging drop culture model to evaluate microtissue growth over a period of 11 days. Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) secretion, a biomarker for AR signaling, yielded a wide dynamic range with a Positive/Negative control (P/N) ratio of 3,326 and Z’ of 0.78.
