Abstract: | Summary The mid-pregnancy rescue of corpora lutea can be mimicked in the pseudopregnant rat by induction of decidual tissue in the uterus: in such rats, around day 10, there is neither luteolysis, nor resumption of follicle-development or increase of the pituitary responsiveness to LHRH. The results suggest that the mid-pregnancy rescue of corpora lutea is caused by a maternal factor.12 February 1987 |
