Effects of testosterone propionate on the social behaviour of groups of male comestic ducklings Anas platyrhynchos L.

One-month old testosterone-injected ducklings were observed in groups of three males and their social behaviour compared to that of oil-injected control birds. Most elements of adult sexual behaviour and one pattern of aggressive behaviour (chest fight) occurred more frequently in the experimental animals. It was shown that the same hormonal treatment induces different behavioural responses in different animals. Unlike previous studies, no social displays were observed in the testosterone-injected ducklings. Possible explanations of this fact are discussed.

A research on the action of testosterone propionate and of ciproterone acetate on the mouse-killing behaviour of the adult rat.

Data demonstrate exactly that testosterone favour above all the killing behaviour of castrate males at birth in comparison with control males while ciproterone acetate turns out to be more effective in diminishing the killing behaviour of males having integral testicle and of androgenized females at birth in comparison with castrated males. The results point out that the killing behaviour of rats is affected by the presence of testosterone in the first days of life, and in the grown-up animal.

Luteinizing hormone release in entire and castrated rams following injection of synthetic luteinizing hormone releasing hormone, and effect of testosterone propionate pre-treatment.

Plasma luteinizing hormone (LH) levels and LH responses to intravenous administration of 100 mug luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LH-RH) were studied in entire rams, long-term castrated animals (operation performed six months previously), long-term castrated animals treated with testosterone for the two prededing weeks and short-term castrated animals (castrated 3 h before LH-RH injection). LH was measured by radioimmunoassay in samples taken at 5 or 15 min intervals. Basal LH levels were lower in entire rams (0-9 ng/ml) than in long-term castrated animals (6-0 ng/nl). After LH-RH treatment the LH response was much smaller (peak level 9-6 ng/ml), total response 13-3 ng/ml/1 h) and slower (120 min to peak) in entire than in long-term castrated animals (peak level 61-8 ng/ml, total response 141-2 ng/ml/1 h, 29 min to peak). Testosterone treatment after long-term castration depressed the basal LH level and delayed the peak LH response after LH-RH to values similar to those for entire rams. After short-term castration the response to LH-RH was already as great (peak level 70-1 ng/ml, total response 133-6 ng/ml/1 h) as after long-term castration. The latency to peak LH level (82 min) was intermediate between that for untreated and testosterone-treated long-term castrated animals (130 min). Testosterone treatment was considered to have acted on the hypothalamus to depress basal levels. The results provided evidence for the presence of two inhibitory actions of the testis at the pituitary level in the ram: a qualitative delaying action of testosterone and a quantitative inhibitory action of the testis on LH release after LH-RH injection. The latter may also be related to plasma testosterone levels.
