Figure 6. Elevated serum testosterone in epileptic rats.

Figure 6

Comparison of serum from control rats and rats that were treated with pilocarpine demonstrates elevated testosterone in rats that had pilocarpine-induced SE, whether they maintained estrous cyclicity throughout the study or did not. Animals were euthanized at the same time of day and time of the estrous cycle (diestrus 1 for cyclic rats, 10:00-11:30 a.m.; diestrus for acyclic rats, 10:00-11:30 a.m.). Mean values and statistics are provided in the text.
