Plasma membrane composition and luteinizing hormone receptors of ovine corpora lutea during early pregnancy

Creator:

Zelinski, Mary Beth

Abstract:

The lipid composition of plasma membranes of corpora lutea was examined to determine whether changes in this organelle occur during regression and early pregnancy in the ewe. Forty ewes were assigned to be necropsied on days 13 or 15 of the estrous cycle (D13-NP and D15-NP) or pregnancy (D13-P and...

In Vivo and In Vitro effects of a cyclopropenoid fatty acid on progesterone synthesis by the ovine corpus luteum

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...
