摘要
The relationship between progesterone and oxytocin profiles during the oestrous cycle, early pregnancy, ovarian inactivity and after PGF(2)alpha injection in sheep, was examined. A parallelism between progesterone and oxytocin levels during the estrous cycle (r = 0.846, P < 0.1) was observed. Early pregnant ewes and those having inactive ovaries had significant low oxytocin levels. Injection of cloprostenol induced peak levels of oxytocin after 2 hr from injection (r = 0.366, P < 0.05).
