    Behav Brain Res 190:140-6. 2008
    ..Testosterone, may, however, play a role in modulating the preference of control over CR males, as attractiveness was totally reduced by a substantial CR, and partially reduced by a moderate restricted regimen...

    ..A potential role for leptin in the anxiogenic effect of preconception CR is discussed...

    School of Psychological Science, La Trobe University, Bundoora, VIC 3086, Australia
    Physiol Behav 94:516-22. 2008

    Elizabeth A Levay
    School of Psychological Science, La Trobe University, Bundoora, VIC 3086, Australia

    ..A was reduced by 33-49% as a result of all dietary regimens and NA was reduced in the gestation and lifelong groups by 51% and 39%, respectively. The potential mechanisms underlying these neuroendocrine alterations are discussed...
