Pregnanolone and 20 -hydroxypregn-4-en-3-one (20 -OH-P) in prolonging gestation in the rat.
نویسنده
چکیده
The comparative effectiveness of subcutaneous administration of 20p·OH-P, pregnanolone and progesterone in oil to prolong gestation in rats was determined. As a result it was found that, while progesterone was shown to have activity, pregnanolone and 20j1-0H-P were ineffective in doses of 5 mg per day. ∗PMID: 4263519 [PubMed indexed for MEDLINE] Copyright c ©OKAYAMA UNIVERSITY MEDICAL SCHOOL Acta Med.

The subcellular distribution and properties of rat hypothalamic progesterone 5oc-reductase, which accelerates the conversion of progesterone to 5a-pregnane-3,20-dione, have been investigated by utilizing 3H-labeled substrate and a reverse isotopic dilution assay system. The enzymic activity was associated primarily with a cell debris-membranes fraction derived from the 1000 x g pellet. This fra...
متن کاملDetermination of the effect of the interaction between Ghrelin and serotonin agonist (R)-8-OH-DPAT on the mean plasma concentrations of T3 & T4 in rat
Introduction: Previous studies have shown that ghrelin inhibits the activity of Hypothalamus –Pituitary – Thyroid (H–P-T) axis. It is also proved that ghrelin increases appetite via Agouti Related Protein and neuropeptide Y pathway, decreases T3 & T4 secretion and inhibits serotonin release from hypothalamic synaptosomes. Serotonin may interact with ghrelin in control of thyroid hormones secr...
متن کاملTranslation of rat ovarian mRNA to two 20 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase isozymes in Xenopus oocytes.
20 alpha-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (20 alpha-HSD) in rat luteal tissue catalyzes the conversion of progesterone into a biologically inactive steroid, 20 alpha-hydroxypregn-4-en-3-one (20 alpha-OHP) and depletes the output of progesterone into the circulation. An increase in 20 alpha-HSD activity in luteal tissue is therefore a prerequisite for the regression of functional corpora lutea in ra...
