Title: Effect of systemic intravenous infusion of PGF-2 alpha and 13,14-dihydro-15-keto-PGF-2 alpha on the release of oxytocin-associated neurophysin from the ovary in the ewe. Author: Watkins WB, Moore LG. Journal: J Reprod Fertil; 1987 May; 80(1):105-12. PubMed ID: 3474414. Abstract: Systemic intravenous infusion of physiological concentrations of PGF-2 alpha and its major metabolite, 13, 14-dihydro-15-keto-PGF-2 alpha (PGFM) into non-pregnant ewes possessing a corpus luteum induced the release of oxytocin-neurophysin. These results suggest that, during luteolysis, endogenous release of uterine PGF-2 alpha would be able to stimulate the release of ovarian oxytocin and oxytocin-neurophysin from the ovary.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
