  • Nongenomic action of progesterone inhibits oxytocin signaling through the ovine oxytocin receptor

    Creator:
    Bishop, Cecily V.
    Abstract:
    Experiments were conducted to characterize the nongenomic effects of progesterone (P4) on binding of oxytocin (OT) to the ovine oxytocin receptor (OTR) and signal transduction. The dose-response relationship of P4 to OT binding to the OTR in endometrium was examined. Progesterone interfered with the binding of OT to the OTR...

  • 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)...
