In vivo modulation of the splenocyte yield and composition by female sex steroid hormones
(Govi-Verlag Gmbh, Eschborn, 2001)
The study was designed to shed more light on the controversial role of the two main ovarian steroid hormones (i.e. estradiol and progesterone) in shaping the size and phenotypic characteristics of the splenic lymphocyte ...
In vivo modulation of the distribution of thymocyte subsets by female sex steroid hormones
(Elsevier, 2001)
This study examined the effects of the principal ovarian steroids, 17β-estradiol (E) and progesterone (P), on the thymic structure and on the intrathymic development of T-cells. Adult female rats were ovariectomized (OVX) ...

(Elsevier Gmbh, Munich, 2005)
Various stressors induce changes in the immune system. However, it has not yet been analyzed how stressors affect thymus innervation. To examine whether chronic stress alters the morphology of the thymus by changing the ...
Androgens Contribute to Age-Associated Changes in Peripheral T-Cell Homeostasis Acting in a Thymus-Independent Way
(Karger, Basel, 2014)
Objective: Considering a causal role of androgens in thymic involution, age-related remodeling of peripheral T-cell compartments in the absence of testicular hormones was evaluated. Methods: Rats were orchidectomized (ORX) ...
