Abstract:
:Four groups of female golden hamsters were exposed to short photoperiods (SP, LD 10:14) for 4, 14, 20, or 27 weeks and tested for physiological markers (uterine weight and estrous cycles) and behavioral (lordosis, approach and aggressive behaviors) measures while in contact with a stud male. After behavioral testing, females were ovariectomized and, during the next 2 weeks, were tested twice more (with a stud male) after replacement with 0.33 microgram (low dose) and 1.0 microgram (high dose) EB plus progesterone (500 micrograms). Results show that, after 14 weeks of SP conditions, uterine weights and percentage of females showing normal estrous cycles are at a minimum. This is mirrored by minimal levels of lordosis and maximal levels of aggressive and approach behavior at week 14. Physiological measures did not fully recover (to preregression levels) until week 27; however, behavioral measures show an earlier recovery by week 20. SP exposure also affects the circadian patterning of behaviors: Females that show lordosis at week 14 did so later in the day than did females tested at other weeks. Females in the regressed state also fail to show a significant decrease in approach behaviors (and a significant increase in receptive behaviors) over the course of the circadian day, a pattern seen in nonregressed females. Following hormone replacement with the low EB (+P) dose, females do not become receptive; however, at the higher dose, all but the week 14 group show increased receptivity.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
