Mechanisms driving social structure in Octodon degus
… and female homophily based on masculinization (anogenital distance) in shaping social associations. Nighttime spatial proximity was negatively associated with association strength, indicating that individuals that were closer at night exhibited stronger associations. Female social cohesion …

Investigating the Effects of Vinclozolin on Reproduction in Three Generations of Sigmodon Hispidus
… gonad mass (PGM), paired testes volume (PTV) and anogenital distance. The following significant differences (P<0.05) were noted: the F2 were born in larger litters than the P generation; F2 animals had lower PGM and PTV than the F1 cotton rats; and lower TRM than both the P and F1 generations, and …

The effects of an environmentally relevant phthalate mixture on female reproduction
… increased uterine weight and decreased anogenital distance at early ages, disrupted estrous cyclicity at multiple time points, and induced cystic ovaries at an old age. These observed adverse effects are probably the reason for the observed reduced fertility and increased breeding …

Intergenerational and Transgenerational Effects of Endocrine Insults
… detection of n-propyl paraben and shorter anogenital distance (a marker of intrauterine androgen activity). Next, I investigated inter- and transgenerational effects of EDCs in mice by exposing pregnant/lactating females to BPA and phenotyping their patrilineal F1-F3 offspring. I observed …

Fetal Biometry and Early Behavioural Development
… are explored. The biometrics include anogenital distance (AGD), several brain measurements (transcerebellar diameter (TCD), ventricular atrium (VA)) and head circumference (HC). AGD was included as a proxy for prenatal sex steroid hormones, given the importance of the latter as an …

Role of androgens in testicular development and dysgenesis
… levels and peripheral androgen action (anogenital distance). The same endpoints were evaluated in mice with inactivation of the androgen receptor (tfm or ARKO mice). As androgen action is assumed to be mediated indirectly, via the peritubular myoid cells, changes in peritubular myoid …
