Abstract
Utilizing the sexually dimorphic nature of hypothalamic nuclei, a determination of the effects of pre- or postnatal flutamide and testosterone treatments were examined in male and female rats. Statistical analysis compared treatments, sex, and time of injection in terms of the sexually dimorphic nucleus of the preoptic area (SDN-POA) and the anteroventral periventricular nucleus (AVPV) volumes and lengths. The present findings establish that pre- or postnatal hormonal environments are crucial in influencing sexual morphology on the developing brain.Entities:
