Endocrine gland that produces the gametes of an organism.
1
The gonads is the name applied to the generative or reproductive glands considered collectively.
2
A prerequisite for adequate ante-pituitary function is a normal secretion of the interstitial cells of the reproductive glands.
3
His conclusion is that the reproductive glands are more sensitive to the effects of alcohol than any other organ.
4
Injuries to the reproductive glands, sometimes the slightest bruises, may lead to atrophy, and a change of personality follows in less than six weeks.
1
To begin with, the thyroid was once a sex gland, pure and simple.
2
These gonado-centric types are not all necessarily sex gland deficient, as the term eunuchoid implies.
3
Nature's only other mode of securing perpetual youth seems to be by prolonging the time allotted to the sex gland crescendo.
4
Since it is especially a sex gland inhibitor, the thyroid and pituitary become freer to exert their influences than under the thymus régime.
5
Oh, he said they'd check my endocrine glands; my thyroid, pituitary-my sex glands.
1
However, mechanisms underlying the gonad-specific expression of Gnrhr are not well understood.
2
Testis torsion is a surgical emergency that lead to permanent gonad damage.
3
The gonad is a unique biological system for studying cell-fate decisions.
4
Fish sampling was in post-spawning period, early and advanced gonad maturation, and pre-spawning.
5
The bipotential gonad expresses genes associated with both the male and female pathways.
6
PMID: 15316698 Testis torsion is a surgical emergency that lead to permanent gonad damage.
7
RT-PCR and Western blot analyses showed its gonad-specific expression intensively in testis and ovary.
8
Transplanted wild-type cells rescued gonad development but not germ cell induction in Tfap2 mutants.
9
Saying his first clam tasted "like a gonad dipped in motor oil."
10
The male's attitude, aggressive pursuit, is instigated by the compound adrenal and gonad endocrines.
11
However, understanding of the molecular pathway(s) involved in gonad differentiation is still incomplete.
12
Furthermore, the expression patterns of the miRNAs were analyzed in different developmental stages of gonad.
13
They may be rather gonad unstable with a corresponding instability of the entire endocrine system.
14
In mammals, the sex of the embryo is determined by the fate of the gonad.
15
Mammalian sex determination depends on the presence or absence of SRY transcripts in the embryonic gonad.
16
Female gonad weight increased with body size.
