  • Nongenomic inhibition of oxytocin binding by progesterone in ovine uteri

    Creator:
    Dunlap, Kathrin Anson
    Abstract:
    Effects of progesterone (P₄) and mifepristone (RU 486) on binding of oxytocin (OT) to its ovine uterine receptor (OTR) were studied in two experiments. Two additional experiments were conducted to evaluate specific binding sites for P4 in endometrial plasma membranes. In Exp. 1, ovariectomized ewes were injected with estradiol-17β (E₂)...

  • Endocrinology of fur growth and reproduction in mink

    Creator:
    Rose, William Jackson
    Abstract:
    Experiments were conducted to determine: 1) the effects of exogenous melatonin and reduced photoperiod on molting and growth of the winter pelage (fur) and 2) whether changes in serum prolactin levels of treated and control mink during this same period were correlated with growth of winter fur. Adult and kit...
