Lesions were produced in the brains of male and female albino rats at 1 week of age. It was found that bilateral hippocampal damage is associated with diminished gonadal and adrenal development when that development is estimated by morphologic and behavioral indices (running activity). Only those female rats with bilateral degeneration of the dorsal fornix failed to exhibit cyclic running. Both male and female rats with considerable bilateral hippocampal damage showed diminished running, smaller-sized gonads, and larger thymus bodies at 75–80 days of age. On the other hand, male and female rats with bilateral damage to the pyriform lobe developed a precocious spurt in running activity. A spurt is normally associated with puberty. The question of whether the hippocampus and pyriform lobe should be regarded only as "centers" for trophic stimulation or suppression or whether they should be regarded as important links in circuits mediating an endocrine response to environmental conditions is discussed.

Infertility is a serious issue disturbing reproductive ages in all society now and calling for solution for continuity. Infertility were induced on groups of animals with separate sexes; M, M1, M2 and M3; F, F1, F2 andF3 with daily subcutaneous administration of 20 mg/kg body weight tramadol HCl for 42 days before respective ethanol root extract administrations of (500, 1000, 1500) mg/ kg body weight for 10 days. The animals were anaesthetized and sacrificed; uterus, ovaries, testes, epididymis were dissected out for histomorphological studies. There is evidence of dose treatment of infertility among treated groups. From the organ weight study, both the male and the female organ weight in the groups remained significantly unchanged. There are dose dependent treatments with the male and female tramadol treatment. The result is more pronounced in the increased dose of ethanol root extract (1000 mg/kg and 1500 mg/ kg) body weight treated testicular cells. This study indicated that Morinda lucida has a prophylactic effect against tramadol-induced testicular damage.
