摘要：

The effects of potassium, calcium, angiotensin II, urotensin II, melatonin, gonadotropin releasing hormone analogue (GnRH-a), and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) on in vitro ovarian smooth muscle contraction were observed in Fundulus heteroclitus. Calcium induced contractions and modified spontaneous contractions in a dose-dependent manner. Potassium, angiotensin II and urotension II induced dose-dependent contractions while melatonin, GnRH-a and HCG had no observable effect on the system. These data highlight the integral role of calicum in ovarian contraction and suggest possible roles in reproduction for angiotensin II and urotensin II. (C) 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
