Short-day stimulation of testicular activity and immunoreactivity of the hypothalamic GnRH system in mink following deafferentation of the pineal body by bilateral superior cervical ganglionectomy and melatonin replacement

The effects of superior cervical ganglionectomy on testicular function (testis volume and plasma testosterone levels) and the immunocytochemical activity of the GnRH hypothalamic system were studied in the mink, a short-day breeder. Animals reared in a natural photo-period were (i) ganglionectomized...
