TABLE 3.
Reproductive parameters in Vax1syn mice
| Vax1flox/flox (Avg ± SEM) | Vax1syn (Avg ± SEM) | p | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Age at VO (days) female | 31.4 ± 2.4 | 36.8 ± 3.4 | n = 5, p = 0.2 |
| Age at PPS (days) male | 29.83 ± 0.4 | 31 (n = 1) | N = 1–6a |
| Circulating testosterone (ng/dl) male | 198.1 ± 80.45 | 39.84 ± 7.76 | n = 5–13, p = 0.25 |
| LH (ng/ml) female | 0.25 ± 0.04 | 0.33 ± 0.07 | n > 10, p = 0.32 |
| FSH (ng/ml) female | 1.23 ± 0.14 | 0.94 ± 0.14 | n > 10, p = 0.15 |
Note: Pubertal onset was evaluated by vaginal opening (VO) in females and preputial separation (PPS) in males. Circulating hormone levels of adult Vax1syn diestrus/metestrus females. Statistical analysis by Student’s t test.
No statistical analysis was done due to low n.
