| estrogen-sensitive progestin binding sites in the brain of the lizard, anolis carolinensis. | cytosol binding sites for the synthetic progestin [3h]r5020 have been identified in the brain and oviduct from untreated and estrogen primed ovariectomized female lizards (anolis carolinensis). competition of various unlabeled steroids at either 10 nm (brain) or 10 and 100 nm (oviduct) revealed that progestins were effective competitors whereas two glucocorticoids as well as testosterone and estradiol were ineffective. the apparent dissociation constant (kd) of the receptor for [3h]r5020 in the ... | 1981 | 7196792 |
| scanning electron microscope studies of the auditory papillae of some iguanid lizards. | the papillae basilares of 16 species (10 general) of iguanid lizards were studied by scanning electron microscopy. variations in the surface structures of the auditory papillae showed the following major differences: 1)papillae with localization of the unidirectional hair cells at the apical end of the papilla (anolis carolinensis); 2)papillae with absence or loss of a portion of the apical bidirectional hair-cell segment (basiliscus basiliscus); 3)papillae with a central, short ciliated, unidir ... | 1981 | 7304475 |

| effects of prostaglandins on sexual receptivity in the female lizard, anolis carolinensis. | prostaglandins (pgs) have been implicated in the mediation of sexual behavior in vertebrates. in this study, the effects of administered pgs on sexual receptivity were examined in the ovariectomized female green anole lizard (anolis carolinensis). injection (ip) of 15 microgram pgf2 alpha failed to induce sexual receptivity in nonreceptive females which were either untreated or estrogen primed. on the other hand, pgf2 alpha treatment of sexually receptive estrogen-pretreated females inhibited se ... | 1981 | 7250049 |
| tonic immobility produces hyperalgesia and antagonizes morphine analgesia. | hyperalgesia was demonstrated during and immediately after termination of tonic immobility in the lizard anolis carolinensis. additionally, tonic immobility antagonized morphine-induced analgesia. in conjunction with other research, these data suggest that the response is accompanied by a reduced availability of serotonin, possibly at postsynaptic receptors of raphe neurons. | 1981 | 7244620 |
| control of the pars intermedia of the lizard, anolis carolinensis. ii. ultrastructure of the intact intermediate lobe. | the ultrastructure of the intermediate lobe of the hypophysis was studied in anolis carolinensis with the use of a threefold aldehyde fixative. lizards with a brown skin were selected. the possibility of two types of secretory cells is discussed; neither cell type is innervated. type i cells are rarely found and contain dense granules approximately 0.3 micron in diameter; type ii cells vary widely in secretory activity. most of the type ii cells contain a large number of dense secretory granules ... | 1979 | 466678 |

| hormonal control of male reproductive behavior in the lizard, anolis carolinensis: role of testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, and estradiol. | the androgen aromatization hypothesis was examined in the male lizard, anolis carolinensis. after castration, sc silastic implants of testosterone (t) restored both challenge and courtship behavior, while dihydrotestosterone (dht) or 17beta-estradiol (e) had no effect on male behaviors. both t and dht, but not e, stimulated hypertrophy and colloid production by the renal sex segment, a secondary sexual characteristic of male lizards. in two separate studies, castrates received dht in combination ... | 1978 | 748019 |

| mast cell histamine and ovarian follicular growth in the lizard anolis carolinensis. | the hypothesis is proposed that histamine released from mast cells in the theca of ovarian follicles increases thecal hyperemia and vessel permeability, and thus plays a role in follicular growth in anolis carolinensis. mast cells are present in the stroma and theca, and the number of thecal mast cells increases as follicles grow. the levels of histamine in follicular walls varies with follicular size. histamine causes vasodilatation of thecal vessels. antihistamine blocks the effects of histami ... | 1975 | 1176907 |
