Creator:: Abdelgadir, Salaheldin Eltigani
Abstract:: Four experiments were conducted to determine oxytocin concen tration of bovine luteal tissue at different stages of the estrous cycle and to study the effects of prostaglandins F₂α (PGF₂α), E₂ (PGE₂), luteinizing hormone (LH), cycloheximide, colchicine and cytochalasin B on oxytocin synthesis and release in vitro. In experiment 1, luteal...

Creator:: Cosola-Smith, Carrie A.
Abstract:: Experiments were conducted to examine the effects of a tumor-promoting phorbol ester, a calcium ionophore and indomethacin on bovine luteal oxytocin (OT) synthesis and secretion and progesterone secretion. Six 18-month-old crossbred beef heifers in Exp. 1 and five similar heifers in Exp. 2 were observed twice daily for estrus using...

Creator:: Jaeger, John Ralph
Abstract:: A study was conducted to determine the effect of the milk ejection reflex on exogenous gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH)- induced release of luteinizing hormone (LH) after short term calf removal. Twenty-four postpartum multiparous beef cows were assigned 3 randomly to groups arranged in a 2[superscript 3] factorial design to be...

Creator:: Rodger, Lynn Dian
Abstract:: Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) on the function of the bovine corpus luteum during the estrous cycle. In Experiment 1, 10 heifers were assigned randomly into two groups with each heifer serving as her own control. Heifers in Group I (n=5) were...

Creator:: Tumbelaka, Ligaya
Abstract:: Two experiments were conducted to examine the effect of a cyclopropenoid fatty acid on luteal cell function. In Exp. 1, 12 mature ewes were mated to a fertile ram, assigned to two groups (n = 6/group) and laparotomized on day 18 of gestation. Ewes with corpora lutea (CL) in both...

Creator:: Bechert, Ursula S.
Abstract:: Prolactin (PRL) is a peptide hormone that is involved in a number of diverse physiologic roles, particularly with respect to reproduction, including: influencing sexual and parental behaviors, onset of puberty, regulation of seasonal reproduction, follicular maturation, ovulation, luteinization and corpus luteum (CL) function, steroidogenesis, mammary gland development and lactation, testicular...

Creator:: Prater, Patrice L.
Abstract:: Two experiments were conducted to determine whether in ewes uterine concentrations of estrogen and progesterone receptors are affected by the presence of a conceptus or by the hormonal milieu associated with extremes in photoperiod to which ewes are exposed. In Exp.1, nine mature ewes were unilaterally ovariectomized by removing an...
