Characterization of ovine follicles destined to form subfunctional corpora lutea.
A study was done to test whether ovulatory follicles destined to form subfunctional corpora lutea differed from normal ovulatory follicles in steroidogenic function. Twenty-five ewes were treated with prostaglandin F2 alpha on d 11 of the estrous cycle, then unilaterally ovariectomized before (n = 13) or after (n = 12) the surge of luteinizing hormone (LH) at the induced estrus to collect "cont...
متن کاملComparison of induced corpora lutea from prepuberal gilts and spontaneous corpora lutea from mature gilts: in vitro progesterone production.
Prepuberal (P) gilts were induced to ovulate with pregnant mare serum gonadotropin followed 72 h later by human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). Three P gilts and three mature (M) gilts each were ovariectomized on d 10, 14, 18, 22 and 26 (d 0 = day of hCG for P gilts and onset of estrus for M gilts). Gilts ovariectomized on d 14, 18, 22 and 26 were hysterectomized on d 6 to ensure maintenance of t...
متن کاملConcentrations of catecholamines, ascorbic acid, progesterone and oxytocin in the corpora lutea of cyclic and pregnant cattle.
To determine if there are inter-relationships between progesterone, oxytocin (OT), dopamine (DA), noradrenaline (NA) and ascorbic acid, these compounds were measured in the corpus luteum (CL) from cattle at different stages of the oestrous cycle (n = 42) and from 1-5 months of pregnancy (n = 27). They were measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and col...
متن کاملAssessment of the mechanism by which prolactin stimulates progesterone production by early corpora lutea of pigs.
Previously, we reported that administration of prolactin (PRL) during the early luteal phase in sows increases plasma progesterone concentrations. In the current study, we searched for the mechanisms by which PRL exerts this luteotrophic effect. The objectives of the study were (1) to examine the effect of PRL and/or low-density lipoproteins (LDL) on progesterone production by porcine luteal ce...
